Hey everyone,
So I just picked up a pair of attack 14’s to upgrade from my current tyrolia’s. The attack toe is obviously much wider then the old pair and both the body and plate area hang over the edge of the ski more then my current setup. My skis or 80mm so when looking at the new toe piece I would say the toe plate portion sticks over the edge of the ski by about 3-5mm (picture makes it look worse then it is because it’s in a little narrower part of ski then where it will be mounted and it’s on top of the old binding). I’ve leaned the ski as if I was turning and don’t think it could ever catch the snow. Even looking at it with my boots I would say my boots are still as wide as the toe piece so if anything my boots would touch before i would get crossed up by catching toe pieces on each ski? Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar situation?
2nd being my last pair was more of an adjustable/demo style the stand height was probably double what it will be know. How will this affect the feel when skiing? I’m hoping it’s not much different maybe just a feel of being closer to the snow when carving?
Thanks!
