its not gonna work exceptionally well.....they might come down, but not all the way.. might not stop the ski like its supposed to... but it is possible....find a hollow metal pipe or thing (piece from cut off poles works great) and put it around the brake arm and bend it...its much easier than just using ur hands

yeah i wouldnt suggust it because my brakes are slightly too small and my ski didnt brake and went into a river and i spent five minutes trying to find it. 22 mm is kinda iffy

Yes you can do it: My EP Pros have 110 mm Jester brakes bent to fit because the 130+ ones are expensive. That said I wouldnt recommend it. The 90mm breaks didn't look right on my Lizzies after I bent them so I bought some 110s.. Just order some spares from backcountry 40 bucks isnt the end of the world..
