Picturesque ski lines have a nasty habit of often being located far away from the trailhead. This unfortunate (or fortunate) reality then necessitates careful gear selection to achieve maximal performance while keeping weight to a minimum. Based outside of Chamonix, the folks at Plum are no strangers to this principle, and therefore designed the Summit 12. Like many Plum bindings, the Summit 12 is constructed with durable aluminum 7075 and POM materials to create a burly binding for the most demanding ski descents. Unlike its sibling, the Summit 12 forgoes ski brakes, which has the benefit of being nicer on the legs and lungs on big vertical days. With lateral and vertical release values ranging from 5.5-12, 35mm of BSL adjustment to accommodate different sets of boots, an ultra-wide mounting pattern, and an integrated stomp pad to help with the biggest drops, even the most discerning gear aficionados will be satisfied. If you’ve been searching for a pared-down freeride binding high on performance but not on weight, your search is over with the Plum Summit 12.

  • 35mm of BSL adjustment to accommodate all your boots.
  • Release values ranging between 5.5-12 to dial in that sweet spot.
  • Aluminum 7075, POM, and steel pins for durability.
  • Removable crampon slot should you need 4WD in the spring.
  • Built to withstand the apocalypse.
  • Made in France.

Update 2022/23: BSL adjustment increased to 35mm. New color. A leash is no longer included.

Question from Mike B
 
What's the difference between the Plum Summit and Plum Karibou?

The images look identical and I only see slight differences in the specs.

Answer from Lrow
 
Hi Mike,

They are very similar! The Summit is the older binding, and does not have the elastic travel in the toe that the Karibou has. With the Karibou, if you over-flex the ski and bottom out the 4mm gap, the toe piece can slide forward along a springloaded track to compensate. The Summit relies on the gap to allow for ski flex and does not have springs in the toe.

Cheers,

Love the oazo and pika bindings I have. Curious as to what the ramp angle is for these or the caribou if you know?

Answer from Gabriel I
 
Hi Eli, glad you're stoked on your Plums! The delta on the Summit is 13.5mm and the Caribou is 7.5mm. We've got the delta of many bindings listed here.
