Abstract
A binding mount assembly for an alpine ski includes a mounting system for removably receiving a ski binding carrier. The binding mount assembly is selectively altered by the skier between a fixed mode where the ski beneath the binding mount assembly is inhibited from flexing and a float mode where the same segment of the ski is allowed to assume its natural arc. Sliding and fixed junctions between the mounting system and the binding plate allow pivotal and/or axial movement between these components. Canting or ramping shims are provided and may be quickly and easily installed and removed by the user.
