Work Well, But Heavy | |
| Rating: |  |
These brakes work well, but are rather heavy. For sub-alpine tours, as well as above-treeline tours out East (where the terrain is so steep that brakes arent going to stop a ski anyway), I just go brake-less and strap-less to save weight. The savings are noticeable. But for Western trips I swap the brakes back in. I havent tried wildsnow.coms tips for removing the non-brake pad, and instead use some thin screwdrivers to pry it up. | |

Use 'em or lose 'em | |

Using skis strapped to your body is dangerous. They trap you if you're in an avalanche, and beat you up if you fall. Get rid of your straps and install brakes. I got a pair of these, and feel much better now that they're on my skis. They work fine, no problems. I found good info on installing these at http://wildsnow.com/tips/diamir_brake_install.html | |

Diamir ski brakes | |

The brakes, though I haven't used them yet (no snow yet), should be great. The installation was not a problem. | |

Nice brakes, overpriced. | |

These are nice brakes and easy to install just like the factory ones. Just to expensive for some wire and plastic. They fit my 115 waisted skis nicely. | |
