Ski Boot Cuff Pivot Rivet — Elegant Repair

by The Editors Of Wildsnow January 20, 2013
written by The Editors Of Wildsnow January 20, 2013

This came in from Tomas K. It’s one of the best homebrew repairs for skiers we’ve seen in a long time. Goes under the category of “Why didn’t I think of that?”

From Tomas: “I broke one of the cuff pivot joints on my Garmont Endorphin boots. I found a pretty elegant solution to solve this problem. For new axle I used a standard chainring screw from bike. This type of screw fit right into the hole. I made a short movie (2min 10s) about installation of the new axle.”

While most of the WildSnow backcountry skiing blog posts are best attributed to a single author, some work well as done by the group.
