Fritschi Vipec Heel Riser 3D-printable replacement

Wait 5 sec.

Last season I was able to get a pair of fritschi vipec bindings for free due to the heel risers having broken off. My dad, who had just bought his first pair of touring skis with the Vipec evo lost his heel riser on his first outing. I found that there were no heel riser replacements online, despite it seeming like a particularly fragile part, so I 3D-scanned the intact heel riser, experimented and modified the model and 3D printed it. I used the heel riser throughout the season with no issues and my dad never had any complaints either! The file was 3D printed using PLA (tried PETG, but PLA seemed to be more durable). Then I inserted screws through the mounting holes that insert into the heel piece of the binding. https://preview.redd.it/33dnu12rwawh1.jpg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a7cf716b7588ffb1ce917b3480250b59ad978ed0 link to the file   submitted by   /u/Xblth   to   r/Backcountry [link]   [comments]
