How can I reuse or recycle snowboard bindings?

Snowboard bindingsWe’ve had an email from Timothy asking “how can i reuse or recycle old snowboard bindings?“.

As my knowledge of snowboarding on extends as far as playing ‘SSX’ on the XBox, my first question was “what are snowboard bindings?”. Wikipedia informs me they are the bits that hold the snowboarder’s feet to the board and can either be as simple as straps or complex moulded hard plastic things. (Someone please correct me if I’ve read/written that wrong.)

So any suggestions?

  4. I’ve never thought about how to go about recycling bindings before! The only thing that comes to mind at the moment is to sell them on. Snowboard bindings are always in demand, from what I’ve seen, and it makes a lot more sense to pass them on to someone who doesn’t mind a battered pair than to throw them away.
