In reply to featuresforfeet:
Don’t worry, you don’t need breakaway parts for ski leashes. In fact, If you use such then it’s best not to use leashes at all as then they are too weak.
Before I switched to NTNs, I used leashes. And to be honest I did ”practice” falling. So broke a fair share of leashes, ripped out the leash connection point from my boots and so on. Never tested them in avalances, but got sluffed a few times. And on the bigger ones the leashes did break.
For strap/cord, don’t worry they’ll break. For wire, well either the boot or binding will break (or binding will rip off from the ski). Were I still to use (steel) wire leashes, I might think about using a key ring on the boot (to protect it), as a release component. Helps with clipping the leash as well.
