Best mount point for Voile 3 pin binding to Madshus M78 / Annum

Post by Dxmetal » Mon Mar 07, 2022 1:25 am

Hey guys, Just got the M78 in and looking to mount my voile 3 pin cable to it. I measured the balance point and it is way off from Madshus pin lines (the ski has 3x pin lines matched to ski boots sizes). Anybody have any suggestions and ideas for where the best mounting should be at ? It is a fat ski with very very soft camber 109-78-95mm.

Stick with the recommended points. It's a downhill oriented ski. Mounting forward will help with handling and turn initiation.

"Stick with the recommended points."

X2. That ski has been around for more than a dozen years now; there were issues with mounting point markings in the first couple of production runs when Karhu was making them (actually they moved production to China), but that was all resolved over a dozen years ago.

I've skied them mounted on the recommended point, and wouldn't change it.

X3 and the forward mount not only helps turning, the tail drop floats the tips up and over fresh snow when breaking trail.
