The Marker Alpinist is a versatile binding. One of the neat features is the ability to opt-in for brakes or to ski without brakes. If you decide to opt-in at a later date, or change ski widths, find replacement brakes here. All brakes sold in pairs. Not compatible with the Alpinist Long Travel binding
90mm - The narrowest brake size reserved for the most versatile backcountry ski size.
105mm - Middlest of the three brake widths available for the Alpinist bindings. Good for powder skis or wide mountaineering skis.
115mm - Widest brake size available and designed for the largest backcountry skis on the market. If you haven't caught on to the benefits of skinnier skis in the backcountry, this is the brake size for you.

I have the Scott superguide freetour with 105mm under foot. Which brake size should I use if I want to put a duke pt on them? 100mm or 125mm?

Hi Eddie,
For a waist width of 105mm, I would recommend the 100mm brakes. Generally, brakes can be stretched up to 5 or 6mm wider to accommodate a wider ski. Alternatively, the 125mm brakes would result in a lot of overhang, and would be less than ideal.

I have a pair of 98 width (atomic backland 2021) with the marker alpinist 12 and I want to get some breaks for them but I don’t want them to be to wide would the 90mm be able to stretch out big enough for that ski width? Thanks

Thanks for your question, Anneke. The 90mm brake could be stretched to fit, however, it will be tight. The brakes do retract when they are tucked, so the 105 wouldn't likely have too much hanging over. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

I have a pair of marker alpinists on skis. Great binding IMO. I don't have brakes and was wondering if I would need to pull the screws out in order to set the brakes? Thanks in advance.
Clark, Sorry, Marker is out of them for the rest of the season.

I have a pair of 4frnt Ravens (104 waist) and plan to mount then with the M-werks Kingpin. The kingpin brakes are 100-125 and they look very wide. Would it be better/is it possible to use the 100mm brake instead?
Hey Aaron, the 100mm brakes would likely work for you, but you may need to bend them out just slightly.

Planning to put these on Atomic Backland 78's. Seems like it might be silly but I'm not a big fan of leashes and want to keep them street (resort) legal. Will the 90 mm brakes be too wide?
Thanks for the question! I think the 90mm brakes would be a bit too wide. You can certainly add them but just be aware that you may catch a brake arm when turning or skiing on steeps!

Will this brake work with last year's (2019) maker alpinist 12 bindings?
Hey Stephen, thanks for reaching out! The 105mm brake would be okay, but have a little excess brake width. For our Zero G 95 rental ski, we used a 90mm Alpinist brake and possibly bent it out just slightly!

Hey there,
Wanted to get the marker kingpin 13s on my line sick day 104s for a 50-50 setup. Would I be able to stretch the brakes on the 100mm? Alternatively, would the 125mm brakes be too big? Let me know what you think. Thanks!
Hi Mark, Ya pushing them out to 104 should not be an issue. I would suggest having the boot in the binding when you tug on them.

I have 97 mm width skis and see you are out of the 105 mm brake. Will the 115 brakes overhang so much as to cause interference while skiing? Thanks.

Brett S
Thanks for your question, Todd. The 115 would be a bit too big, however, the 90mm can be stretched to fit your ski (you typically can stretch brakes about 10mm). If you want the 105 brake option please send us an email at help@skimo.co and we can try to get them in for you!
Nam, yes, the Kingpin brakes here will work with any season Kingpin.

Can these brakes be added to the standard Alpinist, or only the Alpinist Long Travel? Can they be added/removed without remounting the heelpiece to the ski?
