Intro
New for season 23-24, it's very similar to the Tour model in the toe piece and brake, while the heel tower has swapped out the three interchangeable springs to adjust the release values (which don't use the usual numbered scale, but letters) for a more traditional screw adjustment. It has a release range of 6-12, 4-9, or 3-5 for lighter skiers and kids. A development that widens the range of Atomic AT bindings (and Salomon/Armada too), with an easier way to adjust the release settings.
Fit
What we said about the Tour applies here; up front nothing changes. The metal guide is there to help with pin alignment, and the large technopolymer lever is easy to operate with gloves on, if a little stiff. It has two classic toe wings with double spring. The tower doesn't change much, apart from the large screw for adjusting the release settings and climbing aid flaps that can sit on the pins without needing to rotate the tower (by 90°) if you're not interested in flat mode. On the downhill the rear pins are among the best at resisting lateral shocks and torsion.
