Our recommended mount points relative to the ski length are optimized to highlight the best qualities of our skis. We DO NOT recommend moving the binding mount rearward on the ski. However, if you are an experienced skier with particular preferences the binding can be mounted slightly forward.
Situations that this may be prudent include:
- when a skier chooses a longer length than would be standard for their height/weight (for more powder float)
- a skier who desires a more slashy completed turn as opposed to maximizing the carve Moving the binding forward will make turn intiation easier but decrease the ease of completing solid carves.
In any circumstance the amount to move forward should not exceed 10mm and if desired only 5mm is recommended.
EPOXY INSTRUCTIONS
- Every pair of Instinct skis comes with high quality epoxy for binding screw installation.
- The epoxy must be warm and remain so for 24 hrs after install. 25°C 77°F
- Mix the entire volume of both parts well, taking care to use safe practices, gloves, eye protection and adequate ventilation.
- Saturate the drilled holes and let the core soak up the adhesive for 10 minutes.
- If there is no visible epoxy left add 1 drop per hole.
- Install binding screws very carefully to ensure a complete and flush contact between binding and ski. - CAUTION: Do not over tighten and strip screws at this point.

The recommended boot sole center for these skis is 6cm back from cord center.
Alternate mounts for this family of skis are very much up to the skier and intended use. We have mounted these skis with boot sole at cord center, this is not for “all mountain “ use and really is not recommended unless the skiers whole focus is spins and switch riding. These skis already have a centered stance which does cater to a variety of riding styles and urge the consumer to mount as per our recommendation.
