Black Diamond Fritschi Diamir Freeride Plus Binding

Item #BLD0926 | 0 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Awesome

By Ranked #444 - Alpine Touring Bindings April 30, 2007

Absolutely bomber, stiff, reliable, responsive binding. A bit heavier than some of the others out there, but you can throw these on some true fat alpine skis and control them as though you're on a dedicated alpine binding. Some postings mention the Diamir pivot point not being ideal for a natural foot swing. I haven't tried any other brands of AT bindings and can't comment, other than saying these skin much smoother than my old tele setup. They have never "auto-teled" on the descent either. A highly recommended AT binding for anything except multi-day long hauls with little vertical. But what's the fun in that?
