Meidjo 3.0 Binding Springs

I've just mounted the M3s and the 2 springs seem to be much stiffer than the 2 springs in my M2.1s.
Does anyone know if they are stiffer?? Or the springs in the 2.1s have got softer after +/- 35 weeks skiing on them??

One of the testers was my Telemark instructor in 2016, so I asked him what he thought of the Ripstick as a telemark ski. His response was it would be brilliant. ...

Meidjo 2.1 - Snow Under Binding

Recently fitted M2.1 to 2019 Elan Ripstick 96 181 cm. Great set up and really good ski in powder. Still had some snow build up under the binding, so just son a mod. Bought a metre of teflon tape from a kichen supplier - the tape is used in vacuum sealers and £2 per metre. So increased the area under...

Re: Meidjo 2.1 - Riser Spacer

Typically a 10mm thick spacer between ski and binding. Improves angulation.

Edward, Or your brother can read here: https://www.awsa.org.uk/telemark/ And scroll down to Ex Telemark Titan 2019 under regulations. There are 3 documents - the DIN is the most important bit.

Meidjo 2.1 - Riser Spacer

Looking at replacing my Rottefella Freedom bindings with Meidjo 2.1.
Don't have a Riser spacer at the moment and wondered whether Meidjo would benefit??
