@skialex I only used two star washers on the middle screws and filed the plate ever so slightly, looks rock solid to me now, will try it all out tomorrow. @MDB1056 i live in europe so shipping and taxes is all a bit difficult when importing, maybe later, but thanks for all your advice!
-
ok update: I used a round metal file and now it fits perfectly. Can I now just use 6 normal washer screws and it wont move?
-
@MDB1056 thanks I was a little hesitant to drill a brand new binding but if I dont need the countersunk screws- great. Maybe I buy mikro just as well
-
thanks for all the advice, the problem I see is just that the „circels“ are countersunk and should act like holes not slots so if I drill the hole out the screw would no longer be countersunk and then I only had slots and nothing to mount the binding securly
-
@elr I have already tried that all I guess its time for a file
-
@MDB1056 I hope you can see it in the picture, all 5 screws are in and lined up but that one wont fit
-
no no no you understood me all wrong I know that the binding is not where it will be mounted and I did have my old one at 29.50 but even if it is lined up with the holes, the middle ones (which I marked) wont be 100% over the inserts so one screw doesnt go in
-
Now, I need your help again. As most of you suggested I ordered a d3 T factor binding. Much to my disappointment it wont mount on my ho vtr. I think the middle holes on the right side are machined too far inward and now I cant put all 6 screws in. Has anyone experienced this? and what should I do now?
-
@ral ok thanks I was just pulling too long and the fin creates drag so I thought I might be better off without
-
@lpskier Than I will try that, thanks @ral I have only ever had 4 passes in the course yet and execpt the first pass I cleared all buoys later, but I am still working on stack
-
@VONMAN so you would recommend to ski without the wing? I would say I am a pretty good freeskier but I only had about 4 passes in the course so I dont have the timing right but I hope to progress pretty quickly
-
I’m on a 2016 ho vtr and was freeskiing for quite a few years. Now I started to learn the course, currently at 15 off at 30 mph, should I remove the wing? A „pro“ at my skiing site has recommended 5 degrees but I‘m not so sure about that
-
thanks good to know!
-
thanks everyone for the great advice! Does anyone know if the t factor will fit the front ho insert pattern without problems?
-
@lpskier I have tried double boots serveral times but always hated them, so I think I will stick to a rtp and rather try a hardshell
