We Mount Your Skis Now

OK. This is the big one.

From now on, when you buy a pair of skis and a binding from us, we mount it for you. For free. Your pair leaves our warehouse with the binding on and set to your boot. Open the box, click in, go skiing.

We've wanted this since the day we started 1000. Honestly. Back then it was six of us, a lot of ideas, and one thing we kept coming back to: buying skis online is great until the box shows up. Then it sits in the hallway, looking at you, until you find the time. Then you carry it to a ski shop, in November, along with everyone else in town who had the same idea. You leave your boots. You come back in three days. Maybe four.

We've done that dance more times than we'd like to admit. Now you don't have to.

And we don't know of many online stores that do this. Which, to be fair, is exactly why it took us a while. Getting it right meant building a whole new cart, a mounting guide, a technician at the warehouse and a process that checks every set before it ships. It's done. We're stoked. Really stoked.

How it works

Add a binding to your skis in the cart. That's the whole trick. The cart suggests a binding that fits the width of your ski and shows which ones suit you, then turns skis and binding into one set.

It asks for five things: your weight, your height, your age, your boot sole length and what kind of skier you are. Those five are exactly what the technician needs to set your release value, the DIN. Pick your mounting position, check that everything looks right, and you're done.

Then your pair goes under a state-of-the-art drilling robot. It drills every pair exactly where it should, the same way every time, so you get the best mount we can give you and the next pair gets the exact same. A technician oversees it all, puts the bindings in place and does the adjusting by hand.

The binding is set following the ISO 11088 recommendation, using the numbers you give us. So give us the right ones.

Before your first day out, it's always a good idea to click in with your own boots and double check the fit. A worn sole can mean a small adjustment is needed. Same goes if you change boots later.

Every mounted pair also comes with a free SoftTie strap. Small thing. You'll use it every single day.

The short version of the small print

Mounted skis are made for you, so a change of mind doesn't apply once mounting has started. You have 24 hours after you order to cancel for free. Want full return rights? Buy the skis without a binding.

Something faulty or damaged? Same as always. Tell us and we'll make it right.

Why it matters to us

We make products for ourselves first. We always wanted new skis to show up ready, so the first thing you do with them is ski. Quite possibly you wanted that too.

Same skis, built by hand at Åre Ski Factory in Åre, the skiing capital of Sweden. They just show up ready now.

Keep the culture moving.
