Clipping out of bindings...

Who here clips out of there bindings by bringing the tail of their other ski behind them and stepping on it? Who turns around and pushes on it with their pole? Any other methods? I'm just curious, because I was thinking about it randomly today.  Is it bad to do it with you ski?

The bases are really good on the SETH's. I just click out REALLY hard and fast.  I tear the shit out of my skis, they have taken a beating, more of a beating than any other ski that I have owned.

i do the tail of my ski/ free boot.... i used to use poles sometimes but now that i have looks i don't like using poles cuz the dildos are way more work than like say salomon bindings are to take off... one time i got yelled at by a rossi rep for using the ski to take off a binding on a pair of demos for the whole scratching the bases reason...

honestly if your dub is too high to pop out on a bad landing you're just asking to kill your knee someday with no release.

I now have my din set to 8 anyways.
