ATK Haute Route 12 Plus Binding
How do you improve on the "flagbearer" of the lightweight binding category, with such an impressive feature set, we might add? You make it SkimoCo colors offer a higher release value, of course! Introducing the Haute Route 12 from our Italian friends at ATK. All the same impressive features carry over from its smaller brother, and now you can crank it to 12! All climbing risers are magnetic and available from flat without heel rotation, and can be used "race flap" style rises over the pins (also without heel rotation). A 30mm adjustment track allows an entire closet of boots to fit, or forgo the adjustment and fix-mount the heel without the track to save 36g and lower the ramp angle; the opportunities are endless. On the heel, we have independently adjustable lateral and vertical release values, using ATK's Cam Release System featuring independent heel pins for easy step-in and consistent release. The Speed Toe Piece features snowblocking construction for reliability lap after lap.
- All-metal build is impressively machined out of aerospace aluminum for long-term reliability.
- Double magnetic heel risers flip into place without needing to rotate the heel.
- Included (but optional) heel adjustment plate provides a 30mm range for various boot sole lengths.
- Cam Release System means the vertical release works reliably while remaining easy to step in.
- Made in Italy by ATK.
