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.
  • Toe piece allows the toe piece to be calibrated with the heel, allowing for a wider range of release that is more reliable.

Question from Eric S
 
Hey folks, sorry for having so many questions. I'm planning to order these bindings from you along with some Trab 104s.. but I'm nervous because of my bad experiences with the push-button brakes on the old Raiders. They do not always deploy! You said that you think the new Evo ones have more "umph" to them... is that something you'd still say after having more experience? Are the Evo brakes on the RT 11 just the same brakes -- i.e. are the springs as powerful? I'm kind of tempted to just go back to tried and true Dynafit ST, because the brakes are reliable. But I would love to have a lighter more elastic binding.

Hi Eric,

We haven't seen any issues with brake deployment on the Evos - and they don't have the issue the push buttons have had with deploying them with the boot clipped into the heel.

Question from Paddy Gonia
 
What is the delta value of the RT 11 EVO, and how much of a shim is reasonable with this binding (from your experience)?

Thanks for providing this incredibly useful resource - long time lurker, first time poster! Cheers

Answer from eric
 
Paddy- The delta of the RT 11 Evo is +10mm. ATK makes a 4mm shim that would work perfectly for that binding called Speed Shims. They come with screws making the upgrade easy.

Answer from Eric S
 
I am pretty sure that the Raider Evo Toe Shims will *not* work with the RT 11 Evo.
The front hole pattern is 30/45 x 35 same as the old Rraiders. So presumably that means that you want the Raider Toe Shims, even though Skimo's page on this says "not compatiable with Evo". It's very confusing but hopefully the Skimo folks can update the various pages on this so we know what to order.

Answer from eric
 
Eric- You are correct the drilling is different on the RT 11 Evo. I miss spoke the Raider shim could work but not a perfect fit. The shim would need a little customizing to work. The best solution for the RT 11 Evo is the Speed shim which matches perfectly to the toe.

Question from Eric S
 
Is there any reason I could not buy these, plus a set of wider Evo brakes, and swap them out? That way I would have the Raider autobrake but with the lighter toe pieces for my powder skis. I can’t think of any reason to go for the heavier toe of the Raider Evo. Thoughts?
12/19/2024
Answer from jbo
 
Hi Eric, yes you can, and I think it's odd ATK doesn't offer these wider. Sure the mounting pattern is narrower, but plenty of folks use that pattern on wider skis. If you reach out via email, we can swap brakes for you to avoid the expense of an extra set.

Question from Ben
 
Are the brakes removable? If so, do you need to remove the heel piece from the ski?
12/5/2024
Answer from eric
 
Ben, The brakes are removable but you need to have the brake cover to replace and protect the brake area after removal. You do not need to remove the heel piece from the ski.

Question from Nico
 
What is the difference between these bindings and the raider 11 evo?
11/11/2024
Answer from Lrow
 
Hi Nico,

ATK's lineup can be confusing!

Same: both have a toe adjustment to help with release values, cam release system, two magnetic heel risers, and the evo brake system.

Different: for practical usage, you gain 5mm more of BSL travel on the Raider model along with wider brake options. The mounting pattern is wider on the Raider series, allowing for more power transmission for those capable of such discernment.

Question from Rhys
 
It seems like this updated RT 11 Evo is almost the exact same weight as the RT 10 Evo, in spite of the larger/more featured toe piece? Have you guys managed to confirm that yet?
8/9/2024
Answer from Carlos M
 
Hi Rhys,

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).
10/9/2024
Answer from jbo
 
To follow up Rhys, these ended up coming in about an ounce heavier, all in the toe piece. This is no doubt due to the release-value adjustment and the quick-trigger on the wing pivot.
