Intro

The toe is new for the 24/25 season; it’s very similar to their other new release, the Ridge, but without the titanium end stop, and a more traditional turret heel piece. The + version comes with a brake as standard. It’s designed to be a reasonably light all-round touring binding with a suite of features to simplify life for traditional tourers: the heel riser flap and large toe lever can both be operated with a pole, meaning you don’t need to bend down. Ski crampons can also be inserted vertically, and the large toe stop helps to center the boot on the pins.
