Xplore Binding on Finnmark 54 possible?

Post by Skijoring Grace Gale » Mon Dec 11, 2023 4:01 pm

Would it be possible to mount the Xplore binding on the Åsnes Finnmark?

I want to try a skinnier ski for fun, but have no desire to get other boots and binding system.

Please do not suggest nnnbc. I will pole smack you down unconscious then rampage how I hate being iced into my ski binding, which generally is preferable to hearing my rampage without first being knocked out.

Pole Smack? Ouch!!

They’ll be great on the Finnmark…I have them on my Gammes (same dimensions as the Finnmark).

See this post for Xplore on an even narrower ski: https://www.telemarktalk.com/viewtopic. ... =20#p65218
I have Xplore on my Åsnes Ousland and that work fine. Good luck.
