can you switch brakes on bindings? i.e. can you put a wide brake (for an 80 mm ski) on Marker m54 bindings that already have a narrower brake? i know its a bad call to mess aorund with bindings, just wondering if this is possible

Just curious, but are we totally ignoring the appropriate forums now? Seems people just don't give a fuck anymore.

I think this question would be better asked in The Padded Room

Maybe that'll help? (It's sea green, how can it not?)

Not sure about Markers, but switching brakes on Solly's are as simple as a few screws. Looks are tricky (nice thread in tech talk about it), and Tyrolias seem to vary. However, switching brakes will not affect the performance of the binding other than stopping your ski.

But there are plenty of stupid posts, it would seem. Originally Posted by BobMc

try pulling your brakes and taking a few runs, i think you will know the answer to that on your first few turns....... Originally Posted by vote4pedro

I think the important thing here, is to tell you that if you're switching your brakes to keep your markers from pre-releasing, it won't work. You're going to have to go w/ rossi/looks or soli's for that. Sorry man.
