blackoutbill Active member Nov 2, 2011 #2 It's hurts so bad. I closed a pair of pivots on my thumb and lost the nail where the binding closed
Childstar. Active member Nov 2, 2011 #6 Its a part of rossignols built in protection to weed out the Gapers from using their bindings...
G Gimley Member Nov 2, 2011 #7 A guy came into our shop and did that. After wedging the bindings open with a screwdriver, his finger had a grove pressed into it and his fingernail was totalled.

LAME. Active member Nov 2, 2011 #14 Yup, I think it happens to everyone in the beginning, but since then i haven't used anything else.
Crispy. Active member Nov 3, 2011 #15 Which part of the binding closes on your finger? I was trying to figure out on mine where it would get caught.

joshua Active member Nov 3, 2011 #21 I remember reading a thread on here about a dude who closed an fks heel on his finger while driving or something, and he ended up running around a grocery store begging people for help.
