FIRST FITTING
⑥ A QUICK TEST BEFORE SKIING
With the mojos activated, flex your
knees to around 90° (you may want to
hold on to a chair or table for balance),
then lift the toes of your ski boots a
fraction off the ground so that you are
balanced on your heels. If you do not
feel your feet being turned in or turned
out, then fitting is complete.
However, if your feet turn-out when doing this test, you will need to move the Clamp-on boot
fittings a little further towards the outside of your boots (1 or 2 mm). If your feet turn-in
when doing this test, you will need to move the Clamp-on boot fittings a little further towards
the centre of your boots. Please note that this test is not necessary for snowboarders.
Once you are happy with the settings – we recommend that you make a note of them at the
end of this booklet
WHEN TO HAVE YOUR SKI-MOJO SWITCHED ON OR OFF ?
While out skiing – It soon becomes second nature to switch on and switch off, simply feeling
for the switches through your ski trousers with your ski gloves on.
As a general rule, keep the Ski-Mojo switched off whenever you do not have your skis on and
switched on whenever you do have your skis on.
The one exception is when riding a chair lift. You should ensure that the springs are dis-
engaged before you get on to a chair lift. If you forget – we all do ! don't panic – simply put
the switches into the off position and then swing your legs forwards and up to disengage the
springs. Once you are on the chair lift you may want to put the switches in to the On position
in preparation for when you get off. You can either get off the lift as you would normally and
the springs will engage once you straighten your legs OR just before you get off the chair,
swing your legs up to engage the springs, then as the chair arrives the tails of your skis will
contact the ground first and the skis will be pushed back under the chair so that you can easily
⑦ INSTALL THE PERMANENT BALL STUDS ON YOUR SKI BOOTS
stand up and ski off, already powered up.
Once you are completely happy with the position of the Clap-on Ball-Studs, and if you have
your own ski boots, we strongly recommend that you fit ball studs directly on to your ski boots
rather than using the clamps.
Using the mark left by the clamp as a guide make a 4mm hole in the shell of your ski boot. The
actual hole can be above or below the mark left by the clamp, if that is a more suitable place
to make the hole. For the vast majority of ski boots that have two fixings holding the power
strap in place, the outside fixing is usually the ideal place to install the stud. Don't forget to
take the liner out of the boots before drilling to ensure you don't damage them.
