Alright so yesterday while skiing I ejected when my ski got stuck in/on a rail and came back to find out that this happened.



the piece doesnt slide back to it's normal position but it slides back out on the side that it's stuck on.


Will this be a problem? Should I be worried?

Forced it back into place while skiing then it just popped back out. Shouldn't be uce though because I took them inside overnight to see if that was the problem.

thats a really weird problem. I would take the bdining apart a little bit and try to examine it from undrneath or from a better angle. but if your not comfortable with doing it yourself have a shop do it. where r u from? is it possible a rock or sometjing got in it. if something was broken there would probably be rattling, shavings of metal/ plastic or no movement in either direction. there maybe just a foreign object stuck in there from your boot or the rail. i would just keep examining it and looking for "clues" as to what happened

It's your afd, and it looks like something got lodged in there to prevent it from springing back, or a little plastic tab broke off. Not sure what to Tell you to do

I work at a shop and have seen this before. Most likely the spring is just fucked up and needs replaced. Take it in and they can put a new one in
