Replying to Post if you've broken your brakes

So Sunday, my great day was cut short by my brake... braking. I was fucking pissed, a small piece of the plastic cover just popped off, which then proceeded to ruin the entire thing. I'm fed up with brakes. I'm pissed at how a new wide brake will cost $40, while most shops will fit you regulars for free. Fat skis are commonly used out there, and wide brakes shouldnt be 'specialty items', and def shouldn't cost that much.

I'm also really just frustrated with all of the binding companies. I've heard endless stories of people who run through set upon set of brakes each season, and also heard horror stories of a failed brake ripping out a heelpiece, destroying the ski, and even worse, causing season-ending injuries. Landing and riding switch is large part of what we do, and what twin tips were designed to do. Its about time a company stepped it up and made a brake system that works accordingly. So this is a shoutout and a call to action - if you've ever had your brake end your day (or worse), post here.
