Brake fully pulled out

I was using my backyard rail with my 'good’ skis one day when the brake suddenly just fell off. (Usually I’d be using another pair that has brakes removed). How do I fix this?? The screws got ripped out of the ski and probably a bit of dirt is jammed down there now, so if I just put screws back in they wouldn’t stay for more than a few seconds of skiing. I doubt I’ll ever want to remount these skis/ bindings so could I just use the same hole as before but fill it with epoxy or something to prevent it from falling out again. The bindings are attack 11s btw. Thanks

Post pics, You could maybe find a replacement piece for the part that holds the brake down, but you might be SOL. As long as you never fall again you should be good

Also what do you mean by the ‘part that holds the brake down’? Is there a type of part made for when this exact thing happens? Nothing really broke in my case it just got ripped out so idk why I would get a replacement part.

Yeah I thought the part that you screw in that holds the binding broke off in which case you might be able to get a replacement for just that piece but it looks like the whole thing ripped out. You might be able to find just the rear of an attack 11 but idk

It doesn't appear anything is broken, that part is the removable part of the heel, when you swap brakes you swap that piece entirely, it snaps into the rest of the heelpiece and is screwed to the ski.

Heli coils or a remount 1cm forward or back? Also swap to the Attack 13 would be a good idea.

Yea I regretted the 11s instantly. I’ll do those helicoils they’re like $1 online
