As we've journeyed away from the archaic days when frame bindings reigned supreme, many have found that light doesn't necessarily equate to total compromise. For those who count grams, value durability, and enjoy a fully featured binding, the Raider SL 14 from ATK may fit the bill. Built with the same heel piece as many others in the iconic Raider series, you'll be treated to elastic travel that compensates for ski compression, adjustable release values between 7-14, magnetically secured heel risers that avoid obnoxious "clacking," and a high-end build quality definitive of ATK bindings. As the "Free Raider" variant in the SL series, a freeride spacer is included, which acts to transmit more power to the ski for aggressive descents. To help with weight savings, ATK smartly pairs this binding with a minimalistic and light toe piece that leaves all the unnecessary grams behind. For those who want the performance of the Raider series without a single extra gram of additional weight, the Raider SL 14 from ATK is sure to please.

  • Elastic Response System allows the binding to compensate for ski compression, helping keep your release values consistent.
  • Magneto heel flaps smartly secure the heel risers in place, ensuring they don't wildly flap about.
  • Cam Release System facilitates easier step-in to the heel piece and allows for adjustable release values.
  • Snow Pack Proof toe helps eliminate snow buildup under the toe wings for reliable operation in deep snow.
  • AP Brake System, while more fiddly than its Evo cousin, is simple to operate.
  • Easy Entry System allows for simple entry into the toe piece. Hooray!

Question from Bryon
 
Hello,

I am looking at the ATK Freeraider SL 14 binding and was wondering if the 108 brake option will fit a 112 underfoot ski okay?

Thanks

Hi Bryon,

It's a bit of a stretch. It can be done, but ATK officially recommends against bending their brakes. The internal mechanism can fail if the brake arms are bent in the wrong spot, making the brakes unreliable. The answer is that it is possible to make the 108 fit a 112mm ski, but it must be done carefully and ideally by a shop that knows what they're doing. You assume the risks of doing so.

Question from Mike P
 
Greetings,
Would you consider a binding like the Freeraider SL-14 to be used as a very limited use resort binding, or a binding you may want on a travel ski, like to Japan? Or go with a Shift 2.0?
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,

I would feel fine skiing the Freeraider SL14 in the resort from time to time! It will not perform as well as a resort binding in rougher resort conditions, but it is a durable and lightweight touring binding! I think if the majority of your trip is focused on touring, but you might see a bit of time in-bounds, this would be a great binding to choose.
