Fritschi Vipec Evo 12 Binding

Fritschi's Vipec Evo binding will not fold your skins for you or reach down and put your boots into walk mode, but it will allow you to free your heel without exiting your toe piece. Whether you need to traverse in a sticky situation, or are using scaled skis and it's time to climb, this slick system pulls the pins back away from your rear tech fitting with the push of a lever, freeing your heel. Given the nature of this set-up, the heel is unable to turn which, in turn, creates a solid feel in contact with the ski. The lateral release mechanism is in the toe, which has 13mm of built-in elasticity and a large release value range running from 4-12. This means a smoother ride and safer skiing for folks of more sizes, shapes, and skier types. Keep it simple, stay connected, and speed up transitions with the Fritschi Vipec Evo binding.

• Ability to transition from ski mode to walk mode without coming out of your binding.
• Release value range from 4-12 makes this a great binding for skiers of many sizes.
• 13mm of lateral elasticity in the toe smooths out the ride and avoids pre-releasing.
• Emergency release when climbing means the skis will separate in an avalanche.
• Lateral toe release means the twisting force profile is similar to alpine bindings.
