yo dowgz...umm i am going to be putting my old s810's on my new skis and i was just wondering if that grey lifter on them was needed..i am going to be doing mostly park and my skis waist size is 85 so what is the point? but i just didn't know if it would make the binding defective.

Well I dont think it will change the properties of the binding, HOWEVER you may need to buy shorter screws for your binding mounts so they dont punch through your base (most likeley) so just hit up a local repair shop and see what they can do for you

u dont want lifters in the park cus your higher up and youll be less stable and itll be harder to land stuff.

I've skied on s810's for a few years and I've broken multiple skis and never had a single problem with my bindings

let me be the first to say that, yes, those bindings are pretty crappy. mine released all the time with the din cranked up to 10, and i'm not that big. and i'm sorry to tell you, you can't just remove the plate. on the toe piece, it is mountable when you remove the lifter, but the heel piece won't be. try to find the baseplate from the heel piece on any old skis with salomon bindings, that are the right style, and you can swap the parts.

it all depends on how old his S810's are. the OLD ones were a lot stronger than any of their new bindings could ever be. i have ripped my old S12's out of 3 pairs of skis, bindings are still intact. ripped my new S12 Ti off of the frickin' screws, ski is intact. old Salomon=good, new Salomon=P.O.S.

i'm sorry, but half of you people who bash salomon's stuff on this site are really ignorant. if you are messing with binding settings yourself on salomons and only changing your din, there's your problem right there. toe height and forward pressure are just as important as din in the matter of keeping you in the bindings, so maybe you should shell out an extra $15 a year and have your stuff checked out at a shop by someone who knows what they are doing. as far as the lifters go, you cant just mount them without them, you'd have to get the lifter peice from a s912, which is much thinner and you'd also need shorter screws, but its doable

hey, i talked to a guy who worked in the salomon store and he was like why the hell did you take that lifter off. I thought it would make me more stable too, but really dont fuck around. I saw a lot of skiers, with salomon bindings, good skiers too, they all had that plate still on...
