You ever broken a ratchet strap before??? I accidentally broke the ratchet mechanism on one. I sat around in the garage for a while. But last year I took the (neon orange) strap, cut it in two, and now I use them for powder cords. Works pretty well.

If you do this make sure you use a lighter to melt the ends so the strap doesn't fray.

after you waste time on a powder day searching for your buddy's ski (it's always a decent ways below where he craters), you'll use them too.

I always just tie it to the back part of the binding that clicks up when you stomp in.

I lost a ski once, so I use them when I can.

So I googled this and I have to say it doesn’t seem like there are many companies that make them? I mean honestly 20 bucks to save a ski is totally worth it to me
