Touring Bindings

Ski Touring is a special type of skiing that offers unforgettable experiences in pristine nature and requires specific equipment. One of the important factors in touring skiing is the choice of touring bindings, which provide the option of walking or ascending with skis and reliability and safety during descents.

Types of Touring Bindings

Each type of touring bindings has its advantages and specific characteristics, so it's essential to choose the ones that best suit your skiing style and mountain adventures. In general, touring bindings can be divided into the following categories:

Tech Touring Bindings or Pin Bindings: Tech touring bindings, also known as pin bindings, are the lightest among bindings, allowing touring and ascent. This type of binding is characterized by a unique attachment system with pins at both the front and rear of the binding.

Hybrid Touring Bindings: Hybrid touring bindings combine the features of pin bindings and alpine bindings. They are more versatile and adapted to skiers who alternate between skiing on groomed slopes and frequently engage in touring. These bindings are often used by freeride skiers seeking a good combination of bindings for skiing in highly diverse terrains and expecting greater strength for more aggressive skiing.

Frame Touring Bindings: Frame touring bindings are the heaviest and most robust among touring bindings, designed to provide a solid and consistent connection between the front and rear of the binding or between the boot and skis. This type of binding is ideal for skiers who desire greater stability at high speeds and during more aggressive turns, primarily using them for descents rather than ascents or walking.

Touring Boots and Adjustments for Touring Bindings

Touring boots are specially designed for compatibility with touring bindings using pins for attachment. A distinctive feature of these boots is their compatibility with pin bindings. They have special holes on the side of the front part of the boot, precisely fitting the pin bindings. This precise fit ensures reliable attachment of the skier's boot to the skis during ascent, allowing good flexibility for walking and climbing steep slopes. The pins in touring bindings also provide reliability during descents while allowing quick transitions between walking and skiing.
