ATK Raider 12 Alpine Touring Binding

The ATK Raider 12 Alpine Touring Binding is a lightweight binding that produces a high-level of downhill performance and is built with a durable all-metal construction. Did we miss something here? This binding is indeed the Goldilocks of alpine touring bindings: light, powerful, durable. These Italian manufacturers indeed KNOW what they’re doing when it comes to tech bindings and the Raider 12 is a great example of their expert craftsmanship. The ATK Raider 12 binding fits the following functionality into a humble 330 grams per unit:

• Rear-mounted ski brake to hold your ski in place while clicking in
• Elastic travel in the heel to ensure a consistent vertical release value with the natural flex of the ski
• Elastic ski brake plate to ensure a constant lateral release value (this component works to help lateral release just as the elastic travel in the heel works to help vertical release)
• Magneto Heel Flaps to provide a total of FIVE riser heights. That’s right. The most riser height options in the game.
• 25mm adjustment plate to accommodate different touring boots into the same binding.
• Built-in ski crampon receptors to accept a ski crampon for icy skin tracks and predawn frozen ascents
• A heel piece with an adjustable vertical and horizontal release value ranging from 5-12

There is a whole-lotta functionality packed into these svelte bindings. If you want one binding that can safely provide constant release values, user-friendly features, and machined-metal durability – well then, the ATK Raider 12 is what you’re looking for.
