i have no idea if this is an easy fix or what because i'm not very familiar with working on bindings and what not ... i went to was my skis today i went to pull my brake up and the little heel part sorta popped off the hinge ( not sure of exact terminology) .. i tried popping it back on but it was a no go ..

sorry if the pics aren't great, i took them with my iphone.

exact same thing happened to the same brake for me on like my 3rd run the other day. I tried to pop it back on but it just kept coming off and I wanted to ski, so I went to the shop at the base of the mountain and got a new brake for $14.

just take the thing off and slide it out and see if u can put it back togeter

if not just leave it off and put something to keep your heel in the same place

Most shops will have replacement brakes that they'll just pop it off and put a new one on.

Go do that.
