The Hagan race ski internal mounting plate is so strong that I've done this probably at least a dozen times on one pair of my Hagan race skis, with zero spinners.
I’m surprised that top racers need to service and repair regularly since I assume they use new equipment every year. I’ve encountered bindings that need service but typically they have seen years worth of dust, mud and grit
racers ski harder than you
thanks Jon
Is there an ATK model that you would consider as a sidecountry/cross over binding like the Shift?
Press release due in Nov with a soft launch due end of this season and then full sales from autumn 25. That's as much as my NDA allows me to say.Quote:

I don’t doubt it. Ive skied with high level skimo racers who have competed at the World Cup level and haven’t heard of them dealing with binding problems so I’m curious what problems they encounter. I would imagine the problems they encounter are not often repairable but I really don’t know and Id like to learn more.Quote:

I would speculate removing bindings makes it easier to stone grind/change structure for varying conditions. No it a tech though so could be wrong.
mikey b, did you see the pics?Quote:

Judging by pics of them it appears they have two??

Depends on the ROM of your boots and ankles. If you have beefy boots and/or stiff ankles you will really want the extra riser. Personally I would never use it.Quote:

Not that I found either, but I did a pair this week and thought the ATK method worked fine in the end. Like you, I was hoping to find one with the BSL built in since I've done dozens of mounts with those type of templates over the years. I guess I can see how ATK doesn't want to deal with how boot pin insert locations can vary slightly by boot. In the end I think the method is quite accurate and I got a perfect mount out of it. One recommendation: use the boot to eyeball/locate the toe pin insert line and the heel insert line on one ski, then just measure those line locations relative to the boot center line and copy them over to the other ski. That'll ensure both skis are exactly the same and take out any error from eyeballing the boot location.Quote:

How wide of a ski could the Raider 13 Evo with the 108mm brake accommodate?
Thanks
I have them on 113sQuote:

SL toe is lighter a bit? The RT vs Raider heel seems to be different slightly. Higher RV options in the Raider. But yeah, their SKU options are mind boggling. Impossible to track.Quote:

Cheers
Why do you need a template when you have the actual bindings? Some careful measuring is all you need. If you really want a template then make from from the bindings:Quote:

Click boot into the toe binding and push the heel binding pins in to the boot leaving the 4mm gap (rubber band the brake up)
Place complete boot/bindings assembly on ski and align boot centre line with mount line to figure out the fore/aft positioning of your toe and heel templates relative to the mounting line etc
If uncertain do a dummy mount to confirm
Inner front 4 screws are old dynafit pattern, if I remember correct. Would be quite easy to mount the front with them and measure back part with the boot.Quote:

Does anyone know if they make a cover for going brakeless on the new Evo heel pieces? The old version had a nice heel cover and it looks pretty whack without one on the new versions
There will be a new heel cover this season for the Evo system. I've yet to see one, but it should be available soon.Quote:

On their website. They also have a toe shim available for the new speed toe pieces looks like

Oh this is great news! Haven't seen this til now.
Thanks for the tutorial. I am nowhere near your level of expertise and have only done 10-20 mounts. In my limited experience, mounting with a template was less work, more precise and less finicky than the times I had bindings I could not find a template for and made my own. Since I know the manufacturer has a template file, I thought asking them was a good way to get it. Since I didn't, I asked here, and I have since obtained the template from another member (yay!).Quote:

Actually found my old one for 305mm sole from archives. Maybe you can use this one. But check and double check. Attachment 504938Quote:

They are the basis for this ATK composite template and our binding layout tool:

Can somebody leak that new binding already?
