We just installed them in my ski and Katie's, it takes a little work to install but I really like them. The first set we tried were in XFT-Lou's ski and we had to have them.

They take some work to install but they are worth it. I just finished mine up and taking it for a test drive tonight but I can already tell they are going to be well worth it.

The only problem I have with them is that they leak a little, pretty tough to get them completely water dry opposed to conventional holds. With that said though, just add dow foam and three drain plugs. I love them and will never ride without them.

I got mine to seal pretty good. I used a lot of glass and I am going to take some black silicone and go down the side where they attached to the back of the ski. I don't see where they could really leak. I did however mix resin up and made sure I sealed the bottom in the back as I saw that would be a potentially bad leaking spot.
I do not suggest just using the glue provided as then they would really leak.

My question to everyone's that doesn't leak. Have you tested to make sure it doesn't leak. Erok has drain plugs with no foam in the back so we tested to make sure they were sealed up. It took us about a full tube of caulk to make sure they were not leaking in any areas. Yes fiber glassing the top and bottom helps out a lot but the rears are very prone to leaking. It was amazing to see how small of a spot was needed for it to drip relatively quickly.
