AlpenFlow 89

Ford, Budweiser, and John Deere. We do love a good European binding. However, at some point, we as Americans inevitably take to the Harbor to shake things up a bit. AlpenFlow Design continues the strong American tradition of manufacturing in the world of tech bindings, with a product that is business in the front and party in the back. The new design of the AlpenFlow 89 adds to American innovation, as the ski industry inches closer to the perfect touring binding. With a huge amount of elastic travel, the retention is worthy of pushing your limits in the backcountry. A patent-pending toe piece keeps it engaged with the boot until you reach the end of the elastic travel, so you only come out when you want to. The simple and functional design of the alpine-style heel piece allows for fast transitions, and the risers can be accessed with a pole. Those who chase a flat delta in a binding can rejoice in the fact that the AlpenFlow 89 has a ramp angle of zero degrees. Zero ramp angle plus the forward pressure from the heel piece gives this binding an alpine feel without having to swap anything to ski mode in the toe piece.

• Machined anodized aluminum provides durability and looks good.
• The auto toe brake is intuitive, easy to use, and removable.
