the second image is my right binding (back)
as one can see, the base plates have is opposite of another. Because there was like 4 arrows on side on the circles, i got confused when i put them :S.
I'm wander if i should reinstall the bindings or is it okay if I leave it like this. These are burton baseplate, unidisk.

Thank you for your help :D

I don't know if a regular tune up at a shop will take care of those.

Anything specific for snowboarding/skiing.
What's a good and semi cheap website I can look at for it?
Sorry, I live in phoenix, 17 years old, my friends and I are going north to the snow. They all snowboard/ski, I've never been snowboarding or skiing.

I am 14 years old and I love figure skating. I watch it when ever it is on tv and know so much about it. I really want to start figure skating lessons but is it too late too? I'm flexiable and would work really hard but most people start when they are young. I'm not sure if I want to compete or anything. I will probabley just skate for fun. Is it too late for me to start figure skating?

When I snowboard I do wide turns. When I watch other people snowboard they do short fast turns. This technique of turning makes them go faster. When I try to do turns like that it makes me loose my balence and I fall. Also my body won't let me do those fast turns. Also when I turn, my front leg gets alot of pressure when I turn.Can some one help give me advice?

I am looking for an Ice house for my grandpa for Christmas.
I want one that can collapse down and is kinda light weight.
We would like to fish outside the tent because we can't fit eight holes in a 4 man Ice House or shelter. I need some websites I can go to in MN where they have pictures of the houses and stuff so I can buy online. It can't be very expensive!
I want one that would atleast fit to bigs guy and two 15 years teens. Give me some good stores or websites PLEASE! and quick I have to go shopping tomarrow.

Thank you!
No dumb comments like Santa either!!

the binding on the right ski is about half an inch further forwards than the one on the left ski, im wondering if they did it for a reason because the right ski has a "right" sticker on it...
