Lighter Than Dukes / Just As Secure

By Backcountry.com Employee January 8, 2011

Lighter than dukes and just as secure IMO.

Currently have these on a pair of 181 Coombacks and the coupling is near perfect as a sidecountry / short distance touring setup.

For those more dedicated to shaving weight / going minimalist with security I would suggest a Dynafit setup.

Regularly pass those with broken Fritchi Freerides... and yet to break anything on these bindings.

One thing to note: climbing wires, even at their highest point, feel a little limiting and you HAVE to step out of those to switch from tour to ski or vice-versa (unlike dedicated touring bindings.
