Dynafit Bindings
So, I have a pair of Comforts monted on G3 Aces (which, btw, I am very happy
with). I have only spent a little bit of time using them in tour mode, and I noticed something funny in deep snow. In very deep, soft snow, the ski flex's just enough that the heel of the binding bends in and rubs against the boot. It never got tight enough to be anything more than a minor annoyance, but I'm wondering if this has been associated with any problematic wear-and-tear on the binding. Is there anything that can be done to fix it. Or, is there any real reason to bother? -s- |

You might want to double check that the binding is installed properly, there is a specific amount of clearance needed at the back pins. Check out www.wildsnow.com for what/how to check/adjust this clearance. Dynafits have always been subsceptible to the ski bending, that's why they aren't recommended for mogul skiing or jumping off things. If you aren't getting problems with prerelease I wouldn't worry about it if the clearance is correct. _ Booker C.
