CAREFULLY drill a hole in the skis for the binding screws and be careful not to drill through the ski.

Make punch marks on the ski from the template reference points.

Tape the template down to the ski taking care to line everything up EXACTLY.

Cut binding template according to binding size.

Find Ski boot size (usually measured in mm).

These are also a great resource for checking for hole conflicts on multiple mounts.

Cut out the binding mounting paper template (here is a good link to find these ) Ski Binding Templates Binding Freedom Templates: With help from many of the members of the Teton Gravity Research message boards, Jon maintains a set of paper templates for mounting bindings to skis.
