G3 Targa Ascent S/S Telemark Ski Binding

Item #GGG0090 | 8 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Rad

By Backcountry.com Employee January 28, 2008

I got these bindings and mounted them on a pair of fat Seth Pistols - they've been great. As far as touring, the free pivot is definitely rad - I've toured in regular G3 Roxy bindings with no pivot, and these are definitely a huge improvement. Also, the entire heel really does easily flip up to become a climbing bar - I'm not sure if that will cause more wear than if it were just a climbing wire, but I do know that trying to get the wires up and down on my old Roxy bindings while touring was really hard, took forever, and ended up being a real pain in the arse. So, big improvement there as well. I didn't get any snow build-up under the foot yet. Very secure when locked down.
