Snowjam Extreme II Help

[tyberesk]

I need help with Snowjam Bindings. Is there anywhere where you can buy the screws that you use to adjust them. Mine are all stripped up pretty bad.

[Greco]

how many?

[tyberesk]

ummm either 4 or 8

[Greco]

you need the screws that hold the bindings to the boards(4/binding) or the screws that hold the toe and heal bails to the bindings(2/binding)?

Ty:

In case Greco doesn't have enough to go around, if you'd like to send me a boogered screw for a sample, I have access to a lot of morphadite screws and can more than likely find you some from one of my suppliers. Worst case I can always make something on the lathe.

I don't have any Snowjam bindings myself to examine but from the picture on the SBOL web page it looks like the screws that hold down the toe-and-heel plates thread into a nut that probably runs through a slot underneath the binding. Could the threads on these nuts be partially stripped and causing your trouble?

its just the part where the allen wrench goes in that is all stripped out.

[Greco]

Are you using the right size allen key???

Or are you just going Hercules on those screws??:p

[tyberesk]

i dunno they seemed really brittle to me...but when i was adjusting them it was either out on the slopes or in the lodge....i always used the wrench that came with them too. Oh well im not a big fan of the whole snowjam product line...although they do make a great coalboard pair of skiboards hmmmm hint hint for tommorrow

[Greco]

usually what happens is you try to adjust the screws on the hill when their is snow/ice packed into the heads of the screws and because of that the wrench doesn't seat fully and ends up stripping the heads. i've done it to bomber screws too. just have to clear all the snow out and make sure the wrench is all the way in.
