IMO: rather hazardous/chancy (sorry for my pour english I hope you can realize me). These skis are “only suitable for TLT bindings” in case of wood reinforcement layout. I hope if I match the tele riser plate layout to wood reinforcement layout It will works. My problem is: I do not know the localization of the reinforcement on the lenght of the skis. Anyway thank you for your response. Regards, Tomasz Lou,

I have just bought a pair of "new" Dynafit Tour Lite Rally from late 90. They are "only suitable for TLT bindings" - I would like to pair them with 3-pin cable with riser (I have a few). Description of these ski is rather pour. I have found only one piece of info: "construction: Low density HP core with wood binding reinforcement and Bi-directional torsion box construction". Do you have knowledge/experience about construction of the Dynafit Tour Lite Rally under foot? Your help will be very appreciated. Regards from Cracow, Poland;-) Tomasz Hallo,

I guess it was a start - but I had never skied tele,and it was my first backcountry setup. I kept thinking: "I must've bought the wrong boots - nobody could ski in these things!" I spent years and lots of money trying to find something better. I never really did until about 2004 or so. I eventually learned. Man - did they HURT! I had some of these!

I used exactly the same boots as you have in the museum :-) Instead of the "hard way" of repair you have presented we used a piece of sleeping pad.
