Naxo nx01 Alpine Touring Binding
let down

Ranked #558 - Alpine Touring Bindings
May 24, 2004
I am a pretty aggressive skier and managed to break the bindings one week after mounting them. One day, I noticed the toe piece of my right binding was wobbling quite a bit from side to side. Upon inspection, the piece underneath part of the walking mechanism sheared off. Even before the bindings broke, I noticed that they were very unstable. I was popping out of them while jumping off some minor drops while the DIN was set to 12, the bindings would move up to 1 cm laterally each way when on walk mode, and when the skis flexed in ski mode, they flexed like a hinge right below the second pivot point. Overall, I was let down by these bindings and wouldn't recommend them to anyone.
