Description of Black Diamond Fritschi Diamir Explore Binding:
|
Do you love alpine touring but don't want to lug big, nasty, heavy bindings up the hill? The Fritschi Diamir Explore Alpine Touring Binding is the solution to your problems. Built to last, the Explore uses a super slick Teflon plate and adjustable toe to give you a solid connection and a reliable release every time. The Explorer's heel lever is designed for an easy transition from ski mode to touring mode, and features 3 positions of lift, including a “Super High” setting that'll let you climb in comfort, serenaded by the swearing of your group. For long trips in the backcountry where weight is a major factor, the Explore is stalwart companion. The Fritschi Diamir Explore even has return springs make your kick-turns effortless.

| I love these bindings. I use them for touring and for on piste as well. They are pretty stiff and bombproof. I've only had them click into touring mode once when downhill skiing. They do tend to rattle a bit on hardpack, but they're made for pow anyway! |

Stevens Pass Guy (2):  |
| Nice binding, Solid, easy to use, light-ish (with a little extra on the ish) but way more durable than the Naxo NX01 or the last pair of fantastically exploding Dynafits that I had... Brakes are a little tough to come by, so order them from this website with your bindings... but really... leashes are cool! In the words of the great Ricky Bobby- "Brakes are for those who lack commitment" OK- he didn't actually say that, but I'm sure he'd agree. |

| I originally bought the freerides, but in the wrong size, so i was somewhat forced to buy this binding from my local shop. My initial reaction was just like stevens pass guy's "leashes, oh cool!". But try putting on your ski on a steep icy slope and you will quickly realize they are not so cool. Overall, i really dislike the leashes, so get the breaks. Secondly, i broke the riser part of the binding off while resort skiing. I do not recall landing on that part of the binding, but its no longer there, and i am waiting for a replacement part to be shipped to me. They do feel a little flimsy, but not breakable. On a plus side, while skiing in them i can really put some power into the turns. They hold my boot very well, and while at a medium DIN setting (6 or 7) they dont eject me. Although, im going to crank up the DIN, because i dont want my skis coming off and still being attached to me as i yard-sale around. They are also much lighter than a standard binding. Many pros, but one or two major cons. |
