Theoretically you shouldn't because you are using them to demo a ski, not to demo the binding, they should be like a good umpire, seen but not there to sway the outcome. We are in age of having the best demo bindings ever which makes our job testing skis a helluva lot easier.
I've heard lightweight girls say they'd never buy demo bindings because they make the skis a lot heavier. I just figured this was something I'd never understand since no one would ever, ever call me lightweight. Sure my Kenjas with demo bindings weigh a lot more than my 90Eights with non demo bindings but when skiing them I sure don't notice a difference. Maybe it does make a difference if someone weighs a 100lbs but I figured I'd never have to worry about that
