Black Diamond O2 Telemark Binding

Item #BLD0971 | 90 in Stock
3 Star Rating

Tends to loosen over time

By Ranked #368 - Telemark Bindings December 20, 2009

These are the only bindings I've ever skied on so I can't compare to other options. They've worked great for me (purchased as a beginner, progressed to intermediate) and definitely feel secure and solid.

HOWEVER, they loosen up over the course of the day. If you don't retighten they will eventually come completely apart, the wire slowly twists out of the cartridge. I've had some pretty spectacular spills when I've gone down for a turn only to discover that a binding was no longer attached to one ski.
