Baller Stevie Boy Posted September 5, 2012 Baller Share Posted September 5, 2012 With so many post initially, Lost My Way, cannot get the Nano One to feel right, my bindings are at 28 11/16ths, tried various fin numbers, going back to factory, but any advice welcome, I am not on warm water ?

Baller Than_Bogan Posted September 5, 2012 Baller Share Posted September 5, 2012 Factory, baby! Make sure you hold the handle. N1 starts to turn back as soon as you let go, which can be too soon and make it feel like you're not getting wide. Trust that it will turn fast enough no matter how long you hold the handle.

The_MS Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Measure your length with tips. 6.849 2.501 and .716 with head of caliper. move boots to 28.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Than_Bogan Posted September 6, 2012 Baller Share Posted September 6, 2012 Random fact: I'm not sure if my bindings are at factory or are slightly back. According to my tape measure, I'm almost an 1/8" back from the (recently changed) factory setting of 28 3/4". But if I look at where the screws are, the middle screw of the binding is exactly lined up with the insert on the ski. I'm using Dual-Lock mounting, so not actually using the screws, but if I were using the screws, then this is exactly where my boot would have to be, since the hole increments are 1/4" and I'm quite sure that would be too far of a move. So this makes me think I sorta am at factory, and it's just that my T-factor bindings measure out a little differently than the ones Goode used for determining the factory measurement. As far as the fin, I never touched it on either my original N1 (may it rest in peace) or my new one. They didn't even measure out exactly the same, with typically difference of about 0.006". But I can't feel any important difference in the ski's behavior. Combined with trying 7, 8, and 9 degrees and barely being able to tell any difference, I'd say it's not super-sensitive to fin and wing changes, at least within some range of factory. And at least for my skiing style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Stevie Boy Posted September 6, 2012 Author Baller Share Posted September 6, 2012 K, we go with factory, but DFT is a worry with goode slot calipers, if you hold the caliper tip onto the ski when putting it to zero and then move the jaw back to drop over the tail for measurement, because of the diagonal to start with, you have added approx .003" to the measurement, is this the correct way to get factory DFTon Nano One, this means if you have to use a normal caliper at some time you would have to deduct .003 from the measurement, would this be correct ?

Baller MrJones Posted September 6, 2012 Baller Share Posted September 6, 2012 If Reginal and Nick are riding the same ski, how sensitive can it be to 1/16" or 0.003, etc. adjustment? Serious question BTW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtex2011 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 i agree with jonesee...i would be willing to bet they are not the same..but who knows..one would assume they get to ride many skis and find one that works best for them...i have no hard data to back that up, but what the heck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Stevie Boy Posted September 7, 2012 Author Baller Share Posted September 7, 2012 Take your point, but I am a precision Engineer working on commercial aeroplanes, I like things to be just so, hard habit to break, plus I do not want to injure anybody or end up in jail.
