meidjo ski stop- Major problem

[paolo.bordogna]

Hello : I have just bought Meidjo V3 plus the official meidjo ski stops. Here is the problem: snow gets under the boot, get iced and block the release of the ski stop. Result: in such a case if you fall the brace doesn't get activated and the ski doesn't stop. With a major risk for other skiers.

Did anyone got the same experience?

Thanks

I've experienced that as well. Narrower skis seem more prone to the problem than on my wider skis.

I bought a roll of PTFE tape, similar to the tape that comes with the binding, but much cheaper.
one inch by 33 feet is $7.99 on Amazon:


Then I put it on all of the spots I thought snow would accumulate and it appears to have solved that problem, as well as the problem of snow packing under the boots.
