the general rule is that up to drilling up to three times is okay, but some skis aren't rugged as others

now the old man sits until the days when time stood still, the hours always seem to fade, but the memeories never will. All the love that you gave me, the dreams in the night. Now I just want to thank you, while the day's still light.

just make sure they fill in the old holes so you don't have a rotting problem in the core.

not just remounting our own skiis as we grew but remounting cause we bough used skiis. I never owned a new pair of skiis till I was 14. I never owned a new pair of bindings until I was 13 and never had brand new boots until I was 13. then after that for a couple years I bought used equipment again, until last year when I got it all new again. I'm 19 and I''ll prolly remount some stuff this year, maybe mount a pair of my skiis more forward.

^ And I bet you had to walk to school in chest deep snow for 15 miles with no fuckin shoes. I kinda want to remount my PE's, but I'm gonna ski on them a little more before I make the final decision. I got them mounted at the recommended spot, and I think they might not have enough tail.

the pe's are generally a durable ski, but remounting is a risk so talk to your local ski tuners they prolly know much more than any of us here

you can mount three times so if it is the first remount you are good

i work in a ski shop and most of the time we will only remount a ski three times. When you re mount a ski it will change the flex of the ski as well

^eh, not really, but theoretically yes. are you just moving the bindings? or are you putting a new pair on?

the existence of extra screw holes has a minimal effect on the skiis flex
