Dynafit TLT Vertical ST Binding with Brake

Weight: 520 g

Release Capacity: 5-10

Material: CrMo steel, high-strength plastic, stainless steel

Synergy between innovative design and lightweight technology...

Dynafit engineers and designers have taken the binding to a new level, especially with this key Vertical model. They succeeded in satisfying diametrically opposed requirements (stronger but lighter) while improving and streamlining certain details (such as the ski stopper and rotation control). The need for extreme skier retention in the rear binding and the durable crampon attachments made it necessary to calculate new structural ratios and choose the most suitable materials with care. The result is amazing: 20% higher durability, greater comfort of use combined with greater lightness, more precise distribution of force. For more ski touring performance, whether uphill or downhill.
