Same except for front-most hole which is a single centered hole on the quadrax/z12 instead of the two on driver/9xx toes.

cool thanks.

so if I had a ski currently mounted for Z12's, and I wanted to throw some 916's on there. I could mount in the same holes, except for the toes where'd I'd have to drill two holes at the front and fill the single centered one. Si?

Yep. And there will be the additional middle heel hole for the 916s. Any shop will probably hand you a couple hole plugs if you don't want to mess with epoxy too.

assuming the toe is where you want it for your midsole\line location, si.

hahaa...a little, I hate skiing on bindings I don't really know that well and trust. The guy who had the skis before me, Drew from Cornice Sports, was telling me the day before of some pre-release instances he had with them.
They were fine for me yesterday, but the best gear is the kind you don't ever have to think about...and I found myself thinking way too much about these bindings yesterday 'cause I really haven't logged any time on them. 916's on the other hand....

PMGear's 192 fat prototypes. 192cm 143-114-132 with zero camber.

It was my first full day on them....and was STOKED at how well they were carving for such a fat ski. 666 might have gotten some pics from yesterday.

the binding that is currently on them is the Z12 which is what started this thread. I'll be switching out the Z12's to a 916.
