They are most likely pre-drilled for a Neox or an X-Race binding, which have different screw The mounting for all the Race series bindings - 310, 412, 614, 1018 is the same.
Now i have my own ski,s 170 atomic sx 9,i need a little information on setting up bindings i dont know which setting is best for my weight,and i dont know how to alter the bindings them selves,i dont expect a quick answer as i am sure there is a lot to it but a good website that some one knows would go a long way preferably a site with illustrations,i tried to see if pavelski had some thing but alot of his tuition goes on behind the scenes in the form of homework ect,also how do you work out the lengh of pole that you need is it to the hight of your hip? Tomski, Great choice of skis! You will really enjoy them. I need to know what bindings you bought!
Atomic Neox 310 Bindings Instructions Manual
While you get me name and model, I will give you the Bindings 101 Course. Three forces are needed to adjust on bindings. 1.Release ( or your parachute) This is the DIN level. They are the figures you see in front and rear units. This setting is based on your weight, ability level and boot size ( sole)!
A standard chart has been used for all bindings all over the world! Rear pressure setting If you have Atomic NEOX units it is the lower screw at the rear unit! This tension is very important for correct vibration damping and release of units. Front vertical pressure. That is how much pressure you have on plate under sole of ski boot.
If you have the NEOX units there is not setting since they adjust automatically! I have to warn you, that you must set units correctly! Your legs depend on it! Based on your syntax and lack of capitals, I suspect you are in the teens' No problem with that, just make sure your parents understand that this is a safety issue! Give me your ability level, weight, and boot sole length and I will tell you what is the recommended setting for you! Please check this setting at least once every month!
Hope this helps you! Tom, Sorry to say it but if you try to adjust the bindings yourself and get it wrong it is your health you risk. Even if you get the correct DIN setting, all the other clearances need to be correct for the binding to release the way it is designed to and stop your leg or knee breaking.
Either the shop you bought them from should set them up with your boots, or take them to a ski shop the next time you go out to the slopes. Pole length estimate is to turn a pole upside down, rest it on the floor vertically and grip under the basket. Your forearm should be horizontal if the pole is the correct size. Enjoy the new skis, Mark. The meathod I use for binding relase setting is based on experience. You start off with low DIN settings and then adjust upwards when you get a prerelease. A prerelease is when a ski pops off in normal usage, (not a fall or twist etc) from hitting a rut or landing a jump.
I like this meathod because I don't ski in situations where a prerelease might be dangerous. It allows me to have settings which are below where the setting chart might put me, but at the same time meeting my needs and risk preference. Many people feel that the risk of injury through losing a ski prematurely is too high with this meathod (and some that it is not manly to have low DIN settings). It is possible to do a crude test by trying to twist your boot out of the binding in various ways, but also possible to injure yourself in the process. If you do decide to set bindings up yourself, you should do a lot on research and understand the risk.
Atomic Neox 310 Binding Manual
I have picked up a barain pair of Atomic GS 12 skis for my son who is starting race training this year, they have Neox 310 bindings, the booklet states that the sole length for the bindings is 260-365, his boots are currently 257mm in length, so techncially to small, does anyone know if there is any tolerenace in this binding to fit a sole 3mm short, or do i need to wait until he gets new boots, he only got the Salomon Falcon boots in Feb this year, so still has another season in them. My view is bindings are critical, so the answer is probably no but any advice from and ski techies would be helpful. RobCrock, it all depends on if there is sufficient adjustment left on the forward pressure screw when the boot length adjustment is at it's shortest - I think that there should be but I've never tried it myself so please let me know how you get on. The forward pressure adjustment is the smaller screw in the rear of the heel piece underneath the large DIN adjustment screw (see pic). It's purpose is to allow for variances in boot sole lengths that differ from those stated on the boot length scale. It's correct adjustment is CRITICAL as the binding will only release at it's stated DIN setting when the forward adjustment has been correctly set. Correct adjustment is when, with the boot installed in the binding, the head of the screw is flush with the face of the outer housing (as in the pic).
Any adjustment of the forward pressure should be done with the boot removed from the binding to avoid overstressing the screw. When such a small boot size is mounted 'on the line' (on either the forward or central position on the Neox) is likely that the mounting position will still be too far rearward to properly pressure the ski over it's sweet spot. I'd therefore recommend cheating the boot length scale by keeping the toe piece forward & bringing the heelpiece forward.
The boot lengths shown in the windows in the grey 'switch piece' won't be correct but as long as the two lengths shown when added together & divided by two are within 5mm of your actual boot length you'll be fine once the forward pressure has been adjusted. On a boot of your length I'd be looking to position it so the boot mark was at least 40mm ahead of the forward mark. Here's some more Neox info including full instruction with plenty of pics.
Thanks to all, we have tried to adjust the bindings, the boot fits (just) but the forward pressure screw is not flush, so in terms of safety, Tom is getting new skis, these will sit in the cupboard till next year. We will most likely keep the bindings only, unless the growth spurt stops.
Many thanks to all who offered advice. I have learnt so much over the last two days on ski maint., but in the end still took advice from some local shops who confirmed your views and my suspicions. Just ordered some Fischer RC4 WC SL Jnr and checked they take a 257 mm boot sole.
