Why won't my binding plates fit my board?

Question

okay..its a burton lux..

and the bindings are Roxy.

Answer 1

Burton uses a three hole mounting system, while the rest of the snowboarding industry pretty much uses four.  Your Roxy baseplates are probably in only a four hole setup.  Go to any store and ask for a baseplate that will fit your Burton board, and they'll hook you up with them.  Or you could try calling Burton or Roxy, but I doubt either will help much.

Answer 2

Hmm... a little more information might help!  Most boards have the same binding mount pattern. The most notable exception to this standard is Burton who use a three bolt pattern instead of a 4 bolt pattern.  So if your board is Burton and your bindings are not (or vice versa) you may need to buy a replacement mount disc for your bindings.  good luck!

Answer 3

Probably because one of them (board or binding) is using the Burton "3D" 3 hole mounting system (triangle pattern) instead of the standard 4 hole square mounting pattern.

You can't change the board, but most bindings come with different center disks for 3 hole and 4 hole mounting. If you don't have the other center disk, you may be able to get it from the binding maker.

Good Luck

Answer 4

are the plates three hole, or four?  What type of board do you have?  What type of bindings?
