Key points
Setup effect
Stand height changes leverage and feel
Raising the binding changes the relationship between boot, binding and ski. In a race setup even small height changes can alter leverage and the way the ski feels when moving onto the edge.
Workshop check
Screws and system approval must match
The required screw length and the permitted combination depend on the actual plate and binding. If the exact setup is unclear, have it checked before installation.
