I have two sets of release plates that are available for sale. I've used release plates for 8 years. They have always released when I've needed them to, and on one occasion saved me from a broken hip. They are easy to maintain (a little bicycle grease once a year is all that is needed). I simply will not ski today's heavier skis without some form of release. Similar Products Used: 7tm release bindings |

I have owned two pairs of TRP 100 releasable binding plates, attached to my Rottefella R8 bindings. Although I have not skied (or schlepped) hard enough on them to release, I feel a hell of a lot better knowing that the option is there. They are heavy, but I use them primarily for lift-service, with a little bit of climbing over for new powder, so the weight is not a problem. Personally, a few extra ounces is worth 6 months of rehab from an ACL injury (of course, there is no definitive proof that a tele releasable binding prevents an ACL injury, but it works for me.) |

I am a strong expert Telemark skier, the trp 100 keeps me in the ski till i need to release. This part of the binding is the best i have ever used. The binding is a bit heavy but the alternative is bad to say the the best. the huge negative is that I break 3 to 4 plates a year. So far this year (8) times skiing I have broken 3 plates to date. I have purchased 6 bindings in the past 3 years I have one skiable set left. This is bad, I don't know where to get replacement plates.
