🏔 Why This Matters
The Black Diamond Pit Bull 1 was one of the earliest high-performance 75mm Telemark bindings and helped define modern cable-binding feel. While many Pit Bull 1 bindings remain structurally sound decades later, worn or failed springs can drastically change how the binding skis—or render it unusable.
Because replacement springs are no longer manufactured, functional used springs are increasingly difficult to source. Keeping parts like this in circulation is essential for preserving classic Telemark setups and keeping proven gear on snow.
