Maybe edge work too but that can really fuck up your day if you screw it up. There was a dude on TGR selling a custom jig with various removable plates, Look/Rossi, Solly, Dynafit and Marker. I picked one up and they work fantastic, if you can't find a shop jig Jordan check the tech talk he may still have some. I've mounted skis with paper jigs before. Its easy, and I can do it just fine. However, I just prefer to spend the $15 - $20 to have someone else be on the hook if they screw up the mount. Quote

They told me two weeks but then they were ready in 3 days. I also had a core shot repair/ full tune done on the Jet Fuels and XC skis mounted all in 3 days. I'll use REI again and still share beer with Justo. Quote
