Has anyone seen smaller brake retaining straps? Black is my normal. Red is what I given by a shop.

I think mine might’ve been a just bit bigger before stretching out, also just asked a shop for them. Here’s some incredibly interesting photographic evidence of my rubber bands

I save those livestrong type bracelets whenever I can and they work pretty okay for waxing stereo skis

95 and I thought I nearly broke a finger making it work on 115. It slips over the 95s pretty easy though

if you employ a ski strap, you can use it to hold the brakes out =)

that way it is always with the skis and ready for action. plus, they don't really get old and crusty like a rubber band, so they aren't gonna snap on you, releasing the brakes to do damage on your tender digits

Shit I couldn’t get it over even my 95’s. Forget the 115 lol

Had a bag of those in our shop when I was a tech, only used them for kids skis though.

Don't know why more shops don't switch to the burly brake retainers instead of rubber bands. They never break and last forever

Ya I think they were kids/75 bands unfortunately.
