Mounting and Setup Advice
Choose the brake equal to or up to 15 mm wider than the ski waist: 90, 100 or 115 mm. A shop should set the 5 to 14 release for your weight, height, age, boot sole length and skier type and test it after mounting.
The Strive 14 takes alpine and GripWalk soles. Bring your boots in so we can set the release.
