You can always put the new bindings on the old skis. It would be slow and draggy and you'd want to throw them in the garbage. The 179cm Spider would be a little short for you coming off the longer Country Crown- not to mention your weight. Apologies for a long post, thanks for creating such a welcoming and supportive online community. Would wider skis ( Gamme 54, E99, S-bound 98) be more stable (less tipping side-to-side) when breaking trails, do I need more than one type of ski, beefier boots (Alaska, Crispi). Swings in temperatures and a mix of precipitation make waxless my choice. This Southern New England locale gets wind, so trails constantly fill with blowing snow. I weight 175 lbs and thought metal edges might provide some advantage. Is the Spider/Brown-BCX5 setup right for me? I want to go out the back door an ski (less than 10 miles) in orchards, farm fields, rolling wood lots, and avoid snowmobiles. For boots a pair of (new/brown/old style) Fischer BCX-5 (that I have not committed to).Ībout this time, I found the Telemark Talk web site ( better late than never) and started reading.
FISCHER OTX SPIDER 62 MANUAL
I was looking for NNN-BC manual bindings when a pair showed up on Craigslist with Fischer OTX 62 Spiders attached (179cm- 62/52/60) so I purchased those. The Alpina boots fell apart and nothing available would fit the older NNN's, so I went looking for new boots/bindings.
Looking for input on a ski/boot/binding combination.įor the last 20 years I skied on Fischer Country Crowns (210cm- 60/55/56) with the orginal NNN bindings. Activ' Cap construction offers increased stability, while the wood air core reduces weight while creating long-lasting durability.(Hi, new here/ lurking for a few days). A waxless Positrack base features a positive base structure for the best blend of kick and glide in various snow conditions. The ski has a shorter, more accessible length that is easy to turn and maneuver off trail, even in the trees. These edges stop short of the tip and tail for increased edge control when you need it most. Partial metal edges enhance stability and offer edge control when you point the skis down the fall line. Wide dimensions keep this ski afloat in powder or deep snow. The Rossignol Evo OT 65 ski specializes in being able to excel in off-trail skiing while exploring the unknown reaches of the backcountry.
