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.
