Strive 16 MN 26/27

Sixteen is the DIN ceiling and MN is the manual toe height adjustment. This is the top of the Strive range, on the same LDN toe that drops the boot low, direct and neutral, with the low profile 3-part heel for vibration absorption and friction-free release, and the slightly ramped chassis that leaves the ski's natural flex intact.

A 16 DIN binding is more binding than most skiers need, and the retention that makes it right for a heavy, fast skier makes it unforgiving for a light one. Release values that high only make sense if your actual settings land in that range.

For heavy or hard-charging expert skiers, and for anyone sending features where pre-release is the real risk. Most skiers are correctly served by the 12 or the 14.

Brake width clears the ski waist by 0 to 15mm. We check settings against weight, height, boot sole length and skier type before mounting.

If you ski hard enough to need it, this is a binding that stops being something you ever think about.
