Rossi FKS problem

Sooooo i was riding my 4frnts with rossi FKS bindings. I was skiing and on a landing i landed and my leg twisted. I usually set my Din +10 and never pop out but this time I did and from the lift this kid tells me my binding popped. From the base to the toepiece, its like a metal concrete looking thing, it broke. What I was wondering whos fault it is, Rossignol or my shop. Im taking them in first but wonder what you thought. If its the shops fault should I bitch alot since , my 4frnt supermodels are possibly screwed up. I dont know if theyre gonna have to remount .

whatd ya think?

haha it's your fault, you fell and something broke, that happens. do skateboarders bitch and moan and cry out for help when they break a deck? I actually dont skate much so I dont know, but I highly doubt it. and this thread has definately added to the hilariously retarded reputation of bhill if you ask me. lying to your shop, even though you dont even have a use for skis? cool

sounds like they were set too high got over stressed and tore out, check your screws too cause one time i had the wrong screws in my p12s once and they pulled out that was the shops fault and they fixed it

super modles (wide ski) + rossi bindings (small screw pattern) + din is high + falling = binding ripping out
try ur best to get the shop to fix it and since u changed back the din they will prolly help u out

Talk to your shop nicely and they'll probably warranty it for you. If you really need to ski then ask them for an old PX14 toe or something similar that you can use in the meantime - check the height first though.

The new toe is probably the same - looks like just the heel changed. So try to get one of those.
