Product Overview
These simple puppies pull ski brake arms up and out of your way for tuning ski bases and edges. They feature a sturdy round rubber loop with a handy finger pull and hook so you don't pinch a pinkie in the process.
- They go on fast and easy, and work great.
- Get a few so you don't have to switch 'em back and forth between skis while tuning.
- Sold each.
How to use:
- With the ski base side down, press down on the brake to retract the brake arms.
- Put the rubber loop around the brake arm opposite you.
- With your finger in the orange plastic loop stretch the rubber band over the top of the heel piece and hook the underside of the brake arm closest to you with the orange plastic hook.

I've used rubber bands, zip ties, released my touring bindings...but these are the best system I've used for holding back the brakes, EVER! Great, easy to use and cheap. Get some!

5 WAY better than rubber bands!
Posted by John on May 05, 2013
I was introduced to these in the freezing cold at the top of Alyeska. They are SO much better than rubber bands- stronger, and easier on the fingers.

4 good, simple, could be a bit better

If there was some kind of rubber / grippy surface on the part that grabs the brake, they'd be perfect. As is, they slide like crazy if you don't get them in just the right spot. Otherwise, very easy to use and durable.

5 Best I have used

The retainer finger loop is easy to use and the integrated hook pulls the brake down far enough to be completely out of the way.

5 Great Tool
Posted by Busted Yuppie on Aug 05, 2012
I really like these gadgets. They are so stupid simple to use and they go on and off really quickly. Much better than rubber bands or cut off inner tube rounds to hold the brakes. They hold the brakes in full retraction mode to clear to bases of the skis for edging or waxing tools.
