Not being the greatest or most dedicated skier in the world (even though
being Finnish gave me a headstart!!!! :*) ) I bought used skis this
summer in anticipation of more trips to the higher elevations:

My question is:

I have the `old' side closing type bindings (ignorance impedes my
terminology) and I haven't seen those for a while (even on rentals)
so I am wondering if the new bindings are safer, etc.  Also, if I am
faced with the choice (I bought the boots separately):  Should I have
the bindings changed to the new style?  Can they put the metal clips
on the boots for my bindings?  Which of the above would be better?
How much can I expect to pay for this transgression?  Does
anybody have recommendations for a place to take them in LA?

Many Thanks in Advance!
