Radical Touring binding Flamingo

The Dynafit Radical is the latest version of one of the most trusted tech bindings in the backcountry, combining reasonable weight, a ski brake and rock-solid durability.

It has a DIN range of 4 to 10 and needs boots with tech fittings at both the toe and heel. The trade-off of a classic tech binding is less elastic travel than a freeride frame or hybrid binding, in exchange for a much lighter setup on the climb.

The toe has stainless Ice Breaker pins and side towers to guide your step-in, and the heel uses Dynafit's Easy Lock brake system. Speed Step climbing aids give three levels including flat, and a bayonet lock keeps the heel from rotating into ski mode by accident.

Fore and aft adjustment is plus or minus 12.5mm, ramp is 13mm and each binding weighs about 520g. Match the brake width to your ski waist, and come talk to us about mounting.

For touring skiers who want a proven, no-fuss binding that just works deep in the mountains, the Radical is a fantastic choice.
