Ok, so this is probably gonna sound ridiculous, I personally have never encountered a situation such as this one before. I took my skis in to get mounted, and I picked them up today, the mount is fine and there seems to be no problems with the mount itself. However, when I got home and tried put the skis up against a wall, I couldn't actually get the skis apart. The brake wings have actually locked the skis together. It's not like I'm weak as, I puled pretty hard, it's just I don't want to damage the brakes themselves. I was wondering if a) anyone had encountered this situation before and b) if anyone can offer up a solution, because at the moment, the skis are together as a pair. I was thinking about perhaps bending one set of wings to make them wider; but in doing so, I don't want to ruin the integrity of the brake.
Could you post pictures please? I've had this happen to a couple friends and they just threw their skis on the snow a couple times and pulled really hard and they came free. It'd be easier to see the situation and I may be able to help you further
Well, I thought something along those lines too when I couldn't break them apart. As mentioned above it's not as if I'm weak, I'm an U16 rugby player but player at a U18 level. I think maybe I'm approaching the situation with too much trepidation as not to dame the brake base.
