I was thinking of upgrading from my Marker Griffon's to the Rossi FKS's. Does anybody know if its possible? I can't figure out if the holes will line up or overlap... I have Skevik Anton's if that helps any :/

Unfortunately, I am sure that the holes won't line up, that will be a definite remount. That's not a big issue though, skis tend to be good for about 3 mounts so that's all ok. If you wish to find the mounting templates so you can see the differences between the mounting patterns for yourself take a look on the TGR tech talk forums, you'll find them as pdf downloads there.

Why are you switching? Have the markers performed poorly?

They work fine, but I would rather have the FKSs, my buget wasn't all that great when I got them and my local shop only deals with Markers so I was kind of stuck

FKS will need to go 10-15mm forward to clear the old holes. Use two inserts per toe if you want to go closer.

if your griffons still work fine just wait and get the FKS when you replace your whole setup
