Thanks for the tip with the Rampamuffen. I got those and put them in. They were a pain to get in, and some were pushed open at the top a bit.pmg wrote:Hi,
5-6cm for powder might do, I think on hard pack it will suck. What I would do: Depending on your shoe size you can adjust the position of your foot via the demo bindings by ~5cm. So I would put the binding in a way that you can have a normal stance at the center of the sidecut and up to 5cm backwards.
Regarding Inserts: I use Rampamuffen Typ C to do exactly what you want. Its a bit more work than normal mounting, but once its done its great. Also you dont have to care about the type of wood under the binding.
Have a look here:

I found the best way to get them in was to put them in upside down with the split at the bottom of the ski, and to screw them in by inserting the screw. I did it that way on the second ski after bending a couple of the inserts when putting them in. They are long enough that I am not worried about the screws not holding.
What size drill bit do you use for the inserts? I used a 6 or 6.5. Maybe I should have gone bigger.
I got the Marker Griffon Schizo bindings which can be moved 6cm front and back.
