Possible to unscrew ski bindings for packing and later screw them back into the same place?

I'm asking for a friend. He's got two pairs of skis and one of them is a pretty massive powder ski. There is no way both his skis will fit into his ski bag for traveling either side by side or with the bindings staggered together.

Are the mounting holes on skis like those on snowboards where the holes themselves are tapped with metal threads? Or is unscrewing the bindings and then screwing them back into the same place not possible?

EscapeTheGapeTo be fair it was a shitty joke but still, that went right over your head.


in my defense I cant tell whos being serious or not on NS because this is the same site where people ask why a ski cant be made completely out of metal.

Sorry OP, your thread has been converted to defensive bitching about the reliability of wooden threads.

fixed it for you. I'm sorry you think trying to hash out the truth using experimentation, reading, and personal experience is "defensive bitching". Sounds like what Trump would say as a defense against facts.

yeah its really too bad this thread became something productive that is actually creating some decent and interesting testing on something that really hasnt been looked at in skiing

just really a shame somebody is taking the time to look into it
