short approach skis for touring as they are quite a bit wider (90mm) and
longer than my normal approach skis (108) so should be a little better for
climbing in deep powder.
I'll fit my Dynafit bindings to them - point is that for normal use the
binding was towards the back - and I intend to move them more to the middle,
or as far as I can get away with for fitting my ski crampons.
Any advice / help appreciated.

I have a pair, the front binding ie toe is approx. 18/20 inches from the front and the heel binding is approx. 8" from the rear edge of the ski, adjusted for boot size 9us or 8 uk.
