Voile Switchback Telemark Ski Binding

Item #VOL0088 | 38 in Stock
5 Star Rating

I never knew I needed free pivoting bindings.

By Backcountry.com Employee January 16, 2008

I have been backcountry skiing for 25 years and never knew I needed free pivoting bindings. I just hiked 3 days in a row with these and they really do make a difference. Playing with them locked and free, I noticed that there is little resistance when your heel is lifted only about 1 inch, but it really increases from there. Climbing up steeper grades is a lot easier with these.
I have friends who have some other brands and have watched them take their skis off and chip away at ice in the locking mechanism. This cannot happen on Voile's design.
I would highly recommend these.
