In West Central Wisconsin / SE Minnesota anyway. I finally got new bindings for my ~20 year old wood cross country skis. I tried a little skiing last year and decided I really needed new boots and probably new bindings. I had 3-ping - they are repaced with NNN. It might have been “better” to go all out and get new skis - but I have a sentimental attachment to my skis. Though for various reasons (including bad snow years) I haven’t skiied in a long time.

Hopefully I will be able to try them out this year.
