i got the jib bindings on the TM's and today after throwin a few 180s bigger than i've ever gone (which isnt saying much) i was leaning too far uphill and when i hit i exploded and my ski went flyin downt he mtn only to stop by hitting a tree

the brake fell almost clean off, dunno why, but is look good with that shit? like will it be easy to get it fixed? a rep was there at my mtn today said it shouldnt b a problem, just wondering if anyone else has had this before

Brake broke on my brothers skis. We took it to the shop and the popped a new break on in under a minute for free. So it not really a problem.

I always break my brakes it's no problem cause you can get new ones for free, it's just annoying, I always just bend the shit out of them though, they need to make em tougher

did you really have to consult your peers on NS about your broken brake? how old are you? 7?

i have 2 broken brakes this yr. i took the one in and he made me get another put in because its mountain law that u have to have a brake on. so he charged me 20 bucks for one (non-wide brake)brake. so when i broke the other one i didnt say anything

i broke my brakes a few times...the first time i had it replaced, then i didnt bother the other times. now i have new(er) bindings, but if they fall off i still wont replace them.

I have a break that always sticks... I crashed a 5 the other day and my ski ran out full speed down the hill and hit our spine/hip and did a huge front flip. We were all cheerin for my ski, it was tight.

they break from when you land switch and kiss the landing...you eject and the brake is backwards, thus bending and/or breaking it.

brakes are for people who lose their skis alot. turn up your din or get a better binding. SKis should only come off if they totally have to. like if your knee is gonna blow.
