🏔 Why This Matters

The Black Diamond Riva 3 was a widely used 75mm Telemark binding valued for its simplicity and reliability. As production ended, replacement cables became increasingly difficult to source—even though many Riva 3 bindings remain otherwise fully functional.

Cables are a wear item, and once one fails the entire binding is sidelined. Keeping original Riva 3 cables in circulation is essential for extending the life of these bindings and preserving proven Telemark setups.
