Maybe we start a class action suit against Yakima and Thule?

On the other hand 3 pin bindings work and we might just end up with them again in a post apocalyptic world.


Wait...there's something out there beyond 3 pin?

Ive used  binding bags and they work. If one is handy with a sewing machine you can make your own. keeping the grit out is important to keeping the binding working properly . Dynafit ,alpine and yes Mike even those new freepivot tele bindings don't like that road blasted grit. Ive since graduated to a ski box where  the the problem becomes edge and binding wear from being jostled around with your partners gear.

I just rememberd one thing you should do with a bag approach. To keep the bag from flapping to self destruction is to wrap it with bungee or shock cords.

On the other hand 3 pin bindings work and we might just end up with them again in a post apocalyptic world.


My wife makes all our binding covers. They're just heavy ripstop nylon sewn as a tube with shoelaces and cordlocks on each end. They're big enough to go over the bindings and brakes and long enough to cover the entire binding. To keep them from flopping and tearing I likewise wrap them with a bungee cord. Keeps my bindings nice and clean.
