๐ Why This Matters
The Black Diamond Riva 2 was a widely skied 75mm Telemark binding known for its simplicity and reliability. As production ended, replacement cables became increasingly difficult to sourceโeven though many Riva 2 bindings remain otherwise fully functional.
Cables are a wear item, and once one fails the entire binding is sidelined. Keeping original Riva 2 cables in circulation is essential for extending the life of these bindings and preserving proven Telemark setups.
