Atomic Neox 310 Binding Adjustment: A Step-by-Step Guide

When it comes to skiing, having the right bindings is crucial for a smooth and enjoyable ride. The Atomic Neox 310 binding is a popular choice among skiers, but adjusting its settings can be a bit tricky. In this article, we'll guide you through the process of adjusting the forward pressure on your Neox 310 binding.

Adjusting for Hard Snow Conditions

When skiing in hard snow conditions, moving the bindings forward can make a significant difference, especially when carving. For boot lengths like yours, it's recommended to position the binding so that the boot mark is at least 40mm ahead of the forward mark. To achieve this, you'll need to adjust the toe piece and heel piece of your binding.

Using the Boot Length Scale

The boot length scale on your Neox 310 binding may not be entirely accurate, but it can still help you get close. Make sure that when you add the two lengths shown together and divide by two, they are within 5mm of your actual boot length. If necessary, adjust the toe piece forward and bring the heel piece forward to ensure a proper fit.

Importance of Forward Pressure Adjustment

When adjusting the forward pressure on your Neox 310 binding, it's essential to do so with the boot removed from the binding. Overstressing the screw can cause damage or affect the binding's performance. The correct adjustment is critical, as the binding will only release at its stated DIN setting when the forward adjustment has been correctly set.

How to Adjust the Forward Pressure

To adjust the forward pressure, locate the smaller screw in the rear of the heel piece underneath the large DIN adjustment screw. With the boot installed in the binding, ensure that the head of the screw is flush with the face of the outer housing (see picture). This adjustment allows for variances in boot sole lengths that differ from those stated on the boot length scale.

Additional Tips

If you're running out of adjustment room on the forward pressure screw when the boot length adjustment is at its shortest, don't worry. There should still be some room left for adjustment. However, it's always a good idea to test your binding and make adjustments as needed to ensure proper performance.

By following these steps and tips, you'll be able to adjust your Atomic Neox 310 binding like a pro and enjoy a more responsive and enjoyable skiing experience.
