For those who prefer a brake on the toe piece, which automatically activates in case of accidental release in ascent

Intro

High-tech yet practical: for experts and demanding skiers who aren't seduced by the lure of flashy design. Its distinctive feature is the brake under the toe piece, where the mechanism is protected by a plastic shell that also stops snow and ice from accumulating. It is easily locked with the toe lever, pulling it up over the ski position, and automatically deploys during release, even accidental. The toe piece is stable and easy to enter, while the heel unit comes with Cam Release System and there are four climbing aids as well as flat mode.
