Gertsch plates were very popular in Scottish ski resorts in the 70s for the ski hire trade and the adaptor plate gave the binding a ski mountaineering application.There was a ring with a keyed bit that went over the spring tube on the front of the binding when you turned it downwards it locked the adaptor in place.(hard to describe) I realise it was about 5 years ago that you requested these but thought I woul;d offer anyway. Regards Steve Hi
