Adjusting toe piece release values and not just heel piece release values positions Raider Evo and Freeriader 15 EVO even higher in skiing requirements than simple numerical release data indicate. Fixed-release toes provide a medium force value, which works best when the heel is also adjusted to intermediate parameters. On weak heel calibrations, the force is all on the front pins, while on strong ones, it is all on the back, with the double adjustment instead there is always the most correct relationship between force and release that guarantees a perfectly elastic system and high vibration absorption capacity.
