Backcountry Access Cobra R8 Telemark Ski Binding

Item #BCA0075 | 0 in Stock
2 Star Rating

NOT A GOOD CHOICE!!

By Ranked #1693 - Telemark Skiing February 25, 2008

I have owned 3 separate pairs of this binding and would absolutely NOT recommend them. I have had many problems with them including the hardwire bending, the cartridges slipping out of position, ice buildup on toe plate, climbing pins coming up with out warning, and most importantly this binding will come undone without warning. It is affectionately known as the "Death Binding". I will attribute an MCL tear in my knee to the death binding 100%. Pick something else!!!!!!!!!!!
