rossingnol axium 70 x plate binding
Login
I have been given brand new Salomon foil 1080 twin tip skis (brilliant skis, hired the same, twice this year) with new Rossignol Axium 70 bindings. I'm concerned as I can find no reference to these bindings on the net, including Rossignols own website. Are these bindings OK for men ? I'm 80KG, 5'10" and good intermediate skier. Can't see any DIN reference on them.

Julian,
In regards to your concern, could you please specify the DIN range you have on the units? This is done by checking the scale range on the front or back of the bindings. Typically you will have two figure such as 3/10. or 3-10, 310.
Then I will check my charts to see if you fall within the recommended settings.
I doubt if ski shop staff would sell you bindings that do not respect your body type and skier level.

Julian,
Why I asked you to check the DIN value is that my Rossignol technical manual does not list a Axium 70. The lowest model I have listed is Axium 100!
Then I have an Axium JR. Pro Race with DIN of 3-10.
Where did you buy units?
Do you have a information booklet or chart for units?
If in doubt go back to store and make sure there is no safety issue!
DO NOT USE junior models!!!!!

By international agreement among ski producers ALL bindings MUST have a DIN setting. That is an index indicating the tension and release level of the units.
Check again somewhere on units you have a scale!
If not please send picture of bindings! They may be "copies" made in some Asian country!

Course ur right. hadn't realised that the dials front and back were the DIN settings ! Both read 3-10. Could it be that the bindings, although unused, are in fact couple of seasons old? Just strange that I can't find anything about axium 70 bindings.
thanks
