Freeride Binding ATK FR14 - Yellow

Freeride Binding ATK FR14 - Yellow

With the same characteristics as the Raider family, the Freeraider 14 is also distinguished by the patented Snow Pack Proof system, which prevents snow buildup under the front springs of the binding, which on the FR14 boasts an adjustable and even higher release value level ranging from 8 to 14. The already powerful ATK bindings, which will handle extreme tricks and skiing at all limits, have been equipped with an included Freeride Spacer, whose purpose is to deliver the power of competition-level alpine ski bindings. This blurs the line between bindings used exclusively for ski touring and bindings designed for the most aggressive freeriders. The insert known as the Freeride Spacer brings a new level of torsional stiffness and direct energy transfer from the skier to the ski edge. The heel section of the binding features an integrated Elastic Response System®, which despite high lateral loads will optimize pressure with flex and release the binding only when truly necessary.

Technologies:

• Easy Entry System®: redesigned binding head system enables effortless clamping with pin levers
• Snow Pack Proof System®: construction of the binding head levers prevents snow buildup beneath them and facilitates binding engagement and keeps the binding light
• UpHill Hardness Variator® easily adjustable head clamp stiffness for uphill mode. The system is located at the front of the binding, above the pin levers and below the switch lever for walk-ski mode.
• Cam Release System®: reigns among ATK's patented systems. It describes the design and capability of the heel section, which enables grip and boot release in case of a fall. A pre-tensioned spring pushes a special system against the heel pins, ensuring precise release according to the individually set value. The system's advantages are evident in uncompromising performance and stability of the touring boot under the greatest loads (compared to other systems) and the softest boot entry. System operation is exceptionally precise and achieves surprisingly low weight relative to functionality. Release value is adjustable (5-12).
• Elastic Response System®: a system that allows natural flex of the ski without unwanted release. This system comprises a spring located in the rear section of the binding. After loading, the heel of the binding simply moves back to its original position.
• Magneto® Heel Flaps: Improved system of magnetic heel flaps that offer quick adjustment of angle and 5 walking modes with pole assistance
• 25 mm adjustment plate is integrated into the heel section and allows quick and fine adjustments (up to 2 sizes)
• Ski-Brake Elastic Slide: integrated safety system in the rear section of the binding ensures consistent lateral release without unwanted disengagement
• Freeride Spacer: the R12 binding can optionally be equipped with a spacer that optimizes the gap between the boot and the upper ski layer. The spacer is equipped with an elastic slider that prevents uncontrolled binding release even in the most demanding turns and conditions. The spacer improves direct energy transfer from the skier to the skis.
• UpHill Hardness Variator® easily adjustable head clamp stiffness for uphill mode. The system is located at the front of the binding, above the pin levers and below the switch lever for walk-ski mode.
