Agreed that after a few years and/or getting up past 100 days, I’d be checking any new binding carefully on a regular basis, even more so if you’re a beefy guy or ride heavy. Nothing lasts forever, especially when you’re levering it a few thousand times a winter.
I will point out that a some of those bindings first listed are 20-to-30 years old (I remember lusting after the “new” TD2s after they came out, what, 20+ years ago?). And some of those bindings had thinner bails in the first place. The IBEX/Carve Company Bindings had notoriously terrible bails and I still can’t believe they made a product were they used to tell you to replace them 1-2 times per season.
Personally I wouldn’t touch any Burton Race / IBEX / Carve Company products with a proverbial 10-foot pole regardless of use history. And I’d even be pretty careful with the otherwise bombproof but getting-super-old Bomber and Catek bails, too.
check ‘em twice and ride hard!!
