Were the skies mounted more then one time for new bindings? I´m not sure how did the local store mount the bindings to the skies. Should I be worried? Interesting when firs impression after reading your reviews about Dynafit skies are yes I wanna bye these.. And now after buying reading this.. Well thank god I have still have my heavy duty Dynastars and Marker Dukes.. How many years are “few years” used skies? Were the skies mounted more then one time for new bindings?

The lighter weight is super nice, it has good edge hold, still skis pow. Not a super soft snow ski like something wider, but perhaps more versatile. The replacement for the 7 Summits in a modernized width. Lou Silas, the Cho will be a really nice quiver of one for traveling or mixed conditions.

It was just a rough estimate off the top of my head, thinking about 20 T-nuts at 4g/pcs (again, just a rough estimate). Just wanted to say that even if a ski was 70-80g heavier because of metallic inserts it wouldn't be a big deal for me. I would happily pay the weight penalty in exchange for not having to worry as much about pulling the bindings out of the skis Sorry about the 70-80g approximation.
