My friend got a brand new pair of 1080s on ebay and got rossi bindings at a ski shop in PA and the guy mounted the skis backwards. Not centered mounted backwards!!!! He is flipping out and wants a new pair of skis what does everyone think we should do. I think the ski shop should get him a new pair of skis and re mount them for free and help on this topic would help :angry:

Thanks John

I agree on the new skis as well but I would not want that shop to do any work on them.

What ski shop. I know a few over in your area, used to promote 2 of them. Perhaps I can make a phone call.

the skis he was refering to were mine. i got a deal on a pair of salomon 1080s 2005 model off ebay and bought axial ti 2 bindings at a summer sale and got free mountings. well i went to get the skis today and the old dude mounted them backwards. the store couldnt get the 1080s in a 171 so the ordered me 1080 foils from this year to replace them. ill take it. :beer:

Sweet deal .... looks like you got an honest ski shop. We've heard some horror stories on here from time to time.
