ATK RT 11 Evo Binding
Are you looking for a simple, durable, all-around ski touring binding? Do you want brakes, magnetic risers, elastic heel travel, and a fully adjustable release without unnecessary weight? Would you like to adorn your skis with hints of polished aluminum, steel, and fine Italian metallurgy?
If you answered yes to any of the above questions, the RT 11 Evo may be for you. This binding is the flagship of ATK's lightweight, full-featured touring category. The engineers at ATK have managed to cram nearly every sought-after feature on the binding market into these expertly machined pieces of ski jewelry. Compared to its predecessor, the RT 10 Evo, the new RT 11 Evo integrates a release adjustment feature into the toepiece, inherited from the freeride-oriented Raider Evo series. This new toe piece allows for a large adjustment range that will accommodate just about everyone.
Rest assured, the best features of the RT 10 Evo are carried forward, including ATK's signature magnetic heel risers and exceedingly user-friendly Evo brake system. To transition this binding, simply rotate the heel and start skinning. To go downhill, turn it again and enjoy an effortless step-in thanks to the independent cam-lock heel pins. Both risers can be accessed with a pole, so no more bending over to rotate your heel in the middle of the skin track! For aggressive skiing, the elastic travel at the heel allows your skis to flex freely during compressions while the adjustable toe will allow you to dial up your retention with confidence.
With so many features and so little weight, the RT 11 Evo is an excellent choice for almost any backcountry skier.
- Cam Release System allows for easy step-in and crisp release values.
- Easy Entry System allows for easy entry into the toe piece. Clever!
- Elastic Response System allows the ski to compress while skiing, keeping your release values consistent.
- Evo Braking System is easy and intuitive to use.
- Magneto heel risers help tame steep skin tracks and are securely stowed when not in use.
- Snow Pack Proof Toe resists the buildup of snow under the toe wings, increasing reliability in deep snow.
- Evo Toe piece allows the toe piece to be calibrated with the heel, allowing for a wider range of release that is more reliable.

We have not gotten our hands on these yet, unfortunately! We hope to have them soon. When we do receive them, we will verify the weight, and you will see a "yes" appear next to the "Specs Verified" line in the specs sheet above (and we will change the weight specification to whatever we actually record).
