Re: Made my own skis…mounting advice?
Wish I could advise you on binding mounting, just want to say that this making your own ski post is way cool, and anybody with the woodworking skills to build these is unlikely to screw up binding mount.

Re: 75mm binding too wide for my boot
As you stated previously, the fit may not matter much for the intended use on the asnes woodies in mostly flat terrain. I tend to agree. Look at nnn bindings. No sidewall there. If the duckbill is clamped tightly, should be little side to side movement,as long as pinholes are in good shape. I use sm...

Re: 75mm binding too wide for my boot

Re: 75mm binding too wide for my boot
I wasn't aware the old 3 pins came in different sizes, so I had a look at some of mine. To my surprise, my old gresshoppa kwikkstepps say small narrow, my troll 3 pins say small xx and my skiloms say medium. A quick measurement does show the skiloms to be wider.

Re: Wooden skis
Greg is the wood nordic ski guru in the u.s. He gives an accurate description of his skis. I would reach out to him concerning sizing of skis.

Re: Wooden skis
Most wood skis are not very stiff cambered, so I would probably go with the 215's. I am 6' 190#, and normally ski 210. I do have 1 set of woodies that are 205 and really don't notice any difference.

That being said, my skiing is a different style fom mosttelemarkers. Mostly touring through woods with moderate downhi...
