How to Know When Your Ski Bindings Need Adjustment

November 2, 2023

As winter approaches, it’s time to start thinking about getting your skis out of storage and hitting the slopes. Before you do, Country Ski & Sport suggests that you take the time to inspect all of your equipment to ensure it's in top-notch condition. One of the most important things to consider is whether your skis need adjusting or testing before the season begins.

At Country Ski & Sport, we take pride in providing the best possible experience for all of our customers, whether they're skiing or snowboarding. This means not only offering top-of-the-line equipment, but also ensuring that it's maintained and adjusted to the highest standards. Bindings, just like any other mechanical component, can become worn or damaged over time and can cause serious injury. As a rule of thumb, it is recommended that bindings be checked and adjusted at least once a year, and more frequently if you are an aggressive skier or have a history of falls. Having a professional adjust your skis will ensure that your bindings are properly calibrated to your weight, skill level, boot size, and type of skiing you'll be doing. Specific calibration is a must to prevent accidents and injuries on the slopes. At Country Ski & Sport, we can help! Here’s how: 

• Make an appointment at any one of Country Ski & Sport’s three locations to ensure that your bindings fit and meet safety standards.
• Get smoother and more comfortable turns on the slopes because of expert adjustments from qualified technicians. 
• Reduce the risk of sudden release due to incorrectly adjusted bindings, thanks to Country Ski & Sport’s meticulous adjustment services. 
• Enjoy the best performance out of your equipment with guidance from experienced ski professionals.

To get the most out of your skiing experience, it's important to readjust and test your skis before each season. You can trust Country Ski & Sport to assist you in every step of the process.
