Alpine Ski Bindings

The Baron earned its royal stripes long ago as a favorite amongst big mountain, backcountry enthusiasts. Extended Power Frame (EPF), with its extra-wide connection to the ski, gives it the structure needed to power today's wider skis through any snow conditions, whether inside or outside the resort. Frame binding technology allows skiers the versatility to go touring in boots without tech inserts. ANTI ICE RAIL - Use the metal rail to scratch off ice and snow below your boot sole. HOLLOW TECH - Our fiber-reinforced frame base plate provides impressive riding stability and is yet very light due to the gas injected hollow construction. EPF - EXTENDED POWER FRAME - The power booster. The power frame delivers breath-taking performance and amazing power transfer in every condition. Recommended for skis over 88 mm. CLIMBING AIDS FRAME TOUR - The climbing aid offers two positions with 7° and 13° which can easily be accessed with the ski pole, even in an unstable standing position. Integrated elastomer paddings dampen the impact reducing the irritating traditional “clack” and allow more comfortable hiking. TRIPLE PIVOT ELITE TOE - The toe construction with DIN/ISO up to Z 18 allows for impressive retention when freeriding. The spring in the toe is inserted horizontally and with a sole plate inclined by 5°, it provides higher energy absorption so as to reduce the risk of early release. The large supporting surface optimizes the power transmission and allows for great stresses and strains. In relation to their weight, toes with this technology therefore achieve a never-seen-before performance. SOLE.ID - Height-adjustable gliding plate to be compatible with alpine (ISO 5355), touring (ISO 9523), and GripWalk soles. Easy to adjust: Pozi screw at the front to adjust the height of the gliding plate. - Small: 264 - 327mm - Large: 304 - 367mm

The ideal freeride binding with ultra-modern toe and heel pieces that will satisfy skiers who sometimes like to tour. As easy as ever to put on, with perfect power transmission thanks to a wide hole pattern. Compatible with alpine and touring boots. The F12 Tour EPF is the ideal binding for skiers who ski mainly off-piste and sometimes tour too. As well as all the familiar touring features, it boasts an extra-wide EPF frame that delivers excellent power transmission, making it easier to control turns in any kind of snow and taming even the widest touring ski. An ultra-modern hollow linkage heel with wider boot insert reduces the step-in force by around 35%. Snow and ice can be scraped effortlessly off the sole at the Triple Pivot Light toe piece with anti-ice bar. The F12 Tour EPF is compatible with all types of boot – including, of course, ones with GripWalk soles.

For skiers looking for the ultimate versatility in their setup, with uncompromising big mountain performance plus the ability to take advantage of true Pin Tech climbing functionality, the Duke PT ushers in a new era. Marker sets yet another milestone, adding to the Royal Family heritage with the introduction of this hybrid freeride binding for the 2020-21 season. The biggest highlight of this new binding is the innovative Quad-Lock Ride & Hike toe. In ride mode, it provides uncompromising downhill performance with full safety release properties from DIN 4-12. Switching the binding to hiking mode is simply a matter of unlocking the upper part of the toe piece and rotating it forward. Pin binding technology is integrated into the base plate underneath the toe housing and operates in much the same way as Marker's KingPin and Alpinist models. In uphill mode, you have the option of saving 250 grams weight per foot by removing the toe housing sections and stowing them in your backpack. To switch to downhill mode, the toe housing clicks back onto the base plate. It locks back into place thanks to Auto Quad-Lock technology, just by stepping into the binding, without any extra action required by the skier. Another advantage, the Hollow Linkage heelpiece gives the skier the security and power transmission as our Squire freeride binding on the way down. The Duke PT also features SOLE.ID technology, just like other products in the Royal Family. This makes the binding compatible with all boot sole types falling under the Alpine (ISO 5355), Touring (ISO 9523), or GripWalk (ISO 9523) norms. ANTI-ICE RAIL - Use the metal rail to scratch off ice and snow below your boot sole. LOCK & WALK BRAKE - Including neutral walking mode and 10° climbing aid. AUTO QUAD LOCK - Toe part locks itself at 4 different points automatically when stepping into the binding. RIDE & HIKE TOE - For great Royal Family downhill performance and release function combined with pin-technology for strong uphill performance; DIN 6 – 16 Convertible toe: - Save 300g per foot for the uphill. SOLE.ID - Height-adjustable gliding plate to be compatible with alpine (ISO 5355), touring (ISO 9523), and GripWalk soles. Easy to adjust: Pozi screw at the front to adjust the height of the gliding plate. HOLLOW LINKAGE HEEL - The Hollow Linkage Heel was designed to optimize retention for all common types of alpine and touring soles. The hollow axle saves on weight and maximizes the torsional stiffness. The very robust construction is best suited for the most strenuous requirements.

Marker's Junior bindings offer high-level features like the 4-linkage toe and compact heel to the very youngest of skiers. In addition to top-level retention/release technology, Marker junior bindings also provide seamless compatibility for use with Dalbello's ski boot models featuring GripWalk, to allow young skiers a better experience and more comfort while walking around the resort. COMPACT HEEL - A statement of efficiency - with the usual perfect MARKER release properties and the perfect mix of great design, lightness, and excellent functionality. This heel technology is perfect for beginners and occasional skiers due to the release properties and is an excellent value. BIOTECH - During a backward twisting fall both horizontal and vertical forces are triggered on the toe of the binding. Biotech recognizes this unfavorable force combination and reliably reduces the release force.

Marker's new 4.5 Junior bindings offer high-level features like the 4-linkage Jr toe and Compact Jr 2 heel to the very youngest of skiers, allowing them to easily step in and out of the binding on their own. Apart from that the binding provides great riding safety and always enough pressure on the edge. AFD STAINLESS STEEL - All MARKER bindings are equipped with a movable AFD (anti friction device) leading to a highly precise release almost entirely unhindered by dirt, snow and ice! Individual adjustment of the AFD to the area of application ensures perfect functionality - from racing, for children's bindings or on ski tours. COMPACT HEEL - A statement of efficiency - with the usual perfect MARKER release properties and the perfect mix of great design, lightness and excellent functionality.
