Light, Quiet, and Easy to Use

I was worried that the reputed "trickiness" of this binding (as compared to the no-brainer downhill-style step-in binding) was going to take me a longtime to figure out. It didn't. I used nail polish to make some marks on my boots to indicated where the front toe holes are to make it easier to see where I had to step in for downhill mode (or one of the heel-riser positions in touring mode). Manipulating the binding with my ski pole only took a few days of practice. The absence of an entire plate that stays on the boot, as in the Fritschi Freerides, makes these bindings fabulously light and quiet (no clacking as the plate smacks down onto the heel piece with every step). A wooden popsicle stick quickly clears the binding of any ice build-up. These binding rock!
