Grizzly GR 48 Brake Binding

Skimo racing in the Rocky Mountains, there is a marginal but non-negative probability of encountering a grizzly bear on course; if and when that happens, you're going to wish you had the lightest binding on the planet. Weighing in at an inconceivable 48 grams without the brake (or 78 grams with the brake), the Grizzly GR 48 Brake binding is your featherweight ticket to the top of the podium, whether or not you were chased there by a bear. The unconventional toepiece design lacks a traditional lock lever, opting instead for a much smaller but highly effective pin-lock toggle on the lateral side of each toepiece. The front-brake retention system has been similarly optimized into an incredibly minimal one-finger-friendly lock button. The gravity-defying engineers at Grizzly even managed to include features typically found only on heavier bindings, such as integrated, machined-aluminum ski crampon attachment slots on the brake mechanism. If you want to ensure you're at the front of the pack when a grizzly charges up the course, step into the Grizzly GR 48 Brake and be ready to drop any competitor-- man, woman, or bear.

• Micro-adjustable step-in height ensures that binding pin-to-boot alignment is fast and frustration-free.
• The unique and minimalist toe-lock lever and front-brake retention systems are easily operated with one finger.
• The brake assembly includes a machined slot for attaching ski crampons for pesky icy pitches.
• The GR 48 releases vertically and laterally at a fixed value between 8 and 10.
