binding adjustment
An annual, professional binding adjustment and check is as much a part of skiing as an annual service is to a car. Only with calibrated test equipment can you be sure that your bindings will release at the right moment.
Correct binding adjustment is not only an advantage, but also crucial for your safety. In the event of a fall, it is important that the binding releases at the right moment to reduce the risk of injury. However, release during a rapid descent should also be avoided. This is why expert adjustment and checking on appropriately calibrated equipment is so important.
At Sport Nenner , all binding adjustments are made exclusively with tested and certified devices in accordance with ISO 11088. These measure the force required for the release and thus check the functionality of the binding.
What is required for a binding check and how long does it take?
An on-site check-in is required for the binding adjustment & check. This is where you enter your body data (weight, height, age) and skiing ability. In the meantime, we can pre-adjust the bindings with your ski boots (please bring both with you!). The test on the adjustment device itself usually takes about 2-3 minutes. If capacity is available, the entire process from registration to payment takes about 10 minutes.
Please note that we cannot guarantee a positive test result under any circumstances and that we must also offset a negative result.
dangerous half-knowledge
Correct binding adjustment is often presented as a necessary evil. Once adjusted, the binding has to fit. Or does it not? There is a lot of dangerous half-knowledge surrounding binding adjustment. Here are some brief explanations to prevent some of the dangers:
WHEN?
The binding adjustment should be checked every 14 snow days, or at least every year. Not only can your body change during this time, the binding can change too.
Why?
The Z-value (= setting value on the binding) of (older) bindings does not always correspond to the release behavior of the binding. An electronic check on a calibrated test device by a specialist dealer guarantees you the correct release value for you.
What?
During the binding check, not only the binding is tested, but also the mounting and the ski boot are tested in accordance with ISO 11088. Safe skiing is not limited to the binding alone, but to the entire combination: skis, bindings and boots!
