OK, so sorry if these may be silly questions...and I think I just answered one of them....but I just want to be as knowledgeable as possible!
1) I am confused about what "mounting directly to the board" means when talked about with non-Revel8 boards. On the Revel8 boards, obviously you have the 4 hole mount, a riser of sorts (I have Line FF bindings so the riser is a rubber piece....not sure what else to call it) and then the binding itself. But those holes, regardless if it is the Revel8, 4 hole mount or any other configuration....those holes are "in the board"....so that is where I am confused. Are you not really still "mounting to the board"? (NOTE: I think it means that there is a metal insert to accept the screw as opposed to actually just screwing into the board like you would if you were building a house or something with wood...and if that is the case, then I can see why mounting to the board is ridiculous and why would anyone even think to do that? CAn easily see how if it rips out you are screwed...no pun intended!).
2) I just put my Line FF bindings on some odlder Revolts (Thanks again Branden! Finally gonna off the Line Flys which look like dwarfs next to the Revolts). How tight should I tighten the 4 screws? I tightened them and then made sure they were REALLY tight (by hand, not with a power screwdriver). Is it possible to be "too tight"? I just don't want them to loosen up...but also don't want to cause damage.
THANKS FOR YOUR REPLIES!
