looking for some info on bindings...please help me

Hi my name is Dominic and I am a senior at Niskayuna High School. I am enrolled in an engineering cap stone course. I have been put in a team and we have to come up with a problem to try to solve. Our problem statement is, don’t you hate it when the brake on your ski binding breaks. To go forth with this problem I need to see if it is a problem for other people too. It would help me a ton if you would be kind enough to fill out this survey so that I can gather information to move onward with this problem.

My brother did the exact same project for EDD 5 years ago!

I did not know this was a problem...

Landing switch off of jumps. If you release from your ski, the break arms release downhill thus breaking them off your skis.

You'll have better luck on NS.

Seriously Fuje ... I don't know much about alpine bindings but don't the brakes point up when the boots are in them? Do they pop off when you land switch?
