Marker Duke Ski Binding

4 Star Rating

Alpine Binding - it can tour too.

By Ranked #635 - Alpine Touring Bindings November 24, 2009

Dukes are sick. the key to your assessment of them is to think of them as an alpine binding that lets you tour as well.

these are definitely not for the dynafit crowd. they're heavy, they're tricky to adjust and they don't have the ability to adjust the heel height like frischi has mastered. also, they suffer from ice buildup when you are skinning for a long time.

that said, they ski exactly like an alpine binding, with solid power transfer from boot to ski. i have these on my 09 gotamas and they are my everyday ski. ice to groomers to crud to blower pow.
