I was up at Breckenridge this weekend and was throwing down frotflips in the park, and on my last run of the day i hit up the park and threw another front flip, and landed it just alittle forward, but there was so much pressure it tore the back binding out of the ski. Does anyone know if salmon would cover this, cause i have 1080s with the salmon 1080 bindings. If anyone knows could you get back to me.

Well i do have my bindings pretty tight, but they do come off when they should, but on the jump they broke on, they shouldn't have come off.

I don't think that Salmon can do crap all for you coz it's a type of fish but yah, if you call your shop they might be able to fix it up for yah.

My Rossi bindings did the same thing. If you've had them for under a year, the warranty will still be good- and if it's been longer, but it was obviously a product error, they'll replace it anyway. Bring them into your shop (with a receipt if you have one) or check out Salomons website or call them to see what to do.

umm........you should really be realeasing from your binding if there's that much pressure. Maybe fix the settings next time man.
