I have just bought the TLT and Manaslu for exclusive backcountry skiing. However I was wondering if the TLT has similar release functions as a normal downhill binding? I am thinking this set up would be great for some lift skiing but wondered if the binding has comparable release functions.

I have been skiing dynafits for years, and I find the release dependable on the ski hill. You either need brakes or a leash so that your skis don't take off with out you! They have a DIN setting that goes to 10, so they are tested and dependable. There is no toe DIN release but it has been dependable for me as well. Compressions and bumps are the two shortfalls to this binding on the ski hill, so be wary!
