The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard
The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.
We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.
We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

Awesome stuff, its going to be fun to follow your adventures, maybe even make it to Utah.
So the binding broke but the skis ok -- it doesn't look like it tore out of the mounting holes -- new heel piece?

WOW, that is a failure mode I have yet to see in a pair of Dukes or Barons. If I were you I would send Marker a pic and see if they will warranty a new heelpiece. Also, post up your story/pics on TGR and see if anyone in the canyon/valley can hook you up in short order. If you can't find a hookup on shop work to get them fixed, send me a PM.

Davidski- you are correct. The mounting was fine and nothing tore out of the ski, it was a failure on the, not really sure what its called but the pic says it all.
EC- I did make a thread, I'm going to try to get a new one through marker. If im sol I'll send you a pm. Thanks for wanting to help out. Its killing me not being able to use the bg's. I went over the handle bars like 3 times today on the s3's. BG's just make pow sooooo much more fun. The BC looks incredible today too.

I talked to the guys at the GMD ski shop today and they seemed to think that I could replace just the heelpiece since it slides on a track... I must get this resolved soon. Its seriously driving me crazy not being able to use the BG's right now. Maybe its good though, I have hit A LOT of rocks the last 3 days....

Today there was about 8 inches of fresh. It was much lighter snow than yesterday. I got out and did 3 laps on wildcat then took a run off the high T which was nice, hit rocks though. Took one more lap on the high T and did some uphill sidestepping from the top of collins and took it to the goods.
Where is this?
The answer is simple; finding the untracked pow! 11:30 a.m. on a weekend pow day at Alta? unpossible
