Eventually there'll be bindings to fit the skis ~ Rossignol preferably ~ but for now I shall run with decking-screws again. Notice however that in flexing the ski down to meet the front end of the boom that this produces an arc in between the two points at which the ski is fastened.
May have it's uses eventually especially as regards longitudinal pitch-control or trim, but for now it's not what we want in order for the craft to sit flat on the floor or else planing on water. The reason rigid inflatables are rigid is to reduce the drag in water (and they were invented by a naval retiree, his sea-cadets and a sheet of plywood).
The CEO at Wickes, albeit a Sunday afternoon, has called to say that if that logo's not centred by first thing Monday he'll put those decking-screws up my bottom one by one... harsh, but fair.
