I have a question about Summit Jade 87cm w/ Atomic XTE 10 releasable bindings.
I purchased Summit Jade 87cm from skiboards.com through ebay. I received my boards yesterday, and there are issues I want to ask about.
This is my first skiboards that I bought. It was $404 normally but I paid $299 b/c my offer was accepted.
However, I put my boots fit into the binding and when I put my weights on and every time I move I hear SQUEAKING sound, and I think it is from the binding b/c the binding is adjustable without any tool.
I want to know if this is okay to hit the slope. And one more thing is the side brake that is not wide enough b/c the width of the board is wide so it's hard to combine both boards and hold them.
So I sent an email to skiboards.com and he said I can file the plastic part of the brake with a sand paper, and the SQUEAKING sound from the binding will go away after use.
I want to know if it is safe to ride, or if I have to return it.
The binding is mounted directly to the boards and I read one of the forums reviewing Summit Nomad that the Heel unit of tyrolia binding detached from the plate while she was riding down the heel.
So I don't know how good Summit Jade 87cm is and how safe with mounting the binding directly to the boards. (Especially I get SQUEAKING sound) It is brand new pair, and I just got it yesterday.
Please answer my questions skiboard addicts lol so that I can decide if I made a good decision of purchase or if I have to return them. This is my first skiboard purchase.
Thank you.
