Recently broke my ski, the topsheet broke and came up from the sidewalls i had no idea how but when i was looking through clips i found this. I gotta cut down on the fun dip
ReturnToMonkeyPpl dont want to not be able to ski while theyre waiting for new bindings. That's very wasteful, too. I would want something that doesn't fail at all.
everything will fail eventually.
i keep extra parts for all my bindings in my truck, along with tools and even extra skis.
my look and rossi box was just getting too darn big.
mattytruyoure good im just asking for future readers' reference.
the indicator tab on pivots can't be trusted, although it can be a decent ballpark measure. the official manual even says this. you want to look at if/where the heel of the boot contacts the heelpiece (i usually got for a sliver of space in between the two off the bat), the angle that the dildo makes when boot is snapped in (should be around 80 degrees), should have no side to side movement in the heel when snapped in (when really yanking on it you might be able to move it), and a few other things.
Was gonna say this. Pivot forward pressure has nothing to do with the white tab thing on the heel. As a skier i love the binding, but as a ski tech; i fucking hate them lmao
Chrischi69Eh the totally indestructible thing is a little over hyped but i just like how they ski and look🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Indestructible is just a silly phrase for skiing. Especially as I got better at freeride, sometimes big people jump 15+ ft onto a rock a single inch under the snow and tomahawk. Like. At some point any ski would explode. It's fine.

I'd argue that they're cooler than ever now. With so many options out there that are just as good if not better, the only reason they are so popular is they are "cool." Before, they really were better and earned their popularity. Now, they have just retained it while everybody else has more or less caught up in technology and design.
