How to Choose Alpine Touring or AT Ski Bindings

So you’re finally ready to find out if the turns really are sweeter when you’ve earned them yourself. You signed up for your avi course and found a buddy to venture out into the mountains with, and now you just need a sweet touring setup to get you there. But what’s the deal with all the different types of touring bindings, and how do you choose AT bindings? Well, you've landed in the right place. So click in (but leave the heel free for the climb), and well walk through everything you need to know to choose tech vs frame bindings, and how to prioritize uphill vs downhill performance.

This is how you make a video, down to earth, he's not yelling at me. Nice dual camera work too.

Loved this video, guy was super clear about options. So great! Gave me the knowhow and confidence to start this adventure. Thanks so much!

This is how you make a "How to Choose" video!

[@videosbyevo]

Thanks, Greg really knows his stuff!

This was very informative, I went with the frame bindings mostly down to cost, I got a used pair on Ebay and luckily my boots already have a walk function so all I really need to buy was some skins.

Thanks from Canada, Evo!!! Very helpful for one who was out of AT for several years, has 25+ year old gear and is in the market for new AT gear...it has changed a lot, especially the binding options, so thanks!!!

[@videosbyevo]

Glad you found it helpful!

[@alexbasshead]

Very helpful. I didn’t know about hybrids. Planning to get those

[@videosbyevo]

The Salomon Shift, Marker Duke PT, and Fritschi Tecton are all great choices here! Cheers.

Super helpful video!

[@mrslkungpowchikn1206]

That was super helpful, thanks!! Wish you went into comparing telemark bindings and boots also though! I’m considering putting some on my ski bladez as a fun low key option!

[@hankthompson867]

heplful thx

[@deadlymage9899]

Im a big freerider but new to the uphill walking, we do 5-10% uphill walking at most, is frame binding the best choice for me then? I also want to do some tricks.

[@TheRepain]

frame or hybrid for ruffer downhill skiing.

[@hasanyalki6669]

I wonder if binding w 90mm brake width would fit to a ski with 85mm on waist? Ski manufacturer recommends -8cm binding mounting.

[@matthewbowley8024]

yes you would be perfectly fine with that brake

Getting some serious DJT vibes

[@stephenglancy6868]

[@PowFairways]
