The Duke PT 13 Gray/Black is a hybrid alpine touring binding from Marker.
This new binding, designed for extreme freeriders, stands out for its low tech and alpine character. You will be able to enjoy the advantages of an insert binding on the way up and the alpine mode on the way down.
The Ride & Hike Toe toe piece allows precise safety release with a DIN of up to 16. In the event of a fall, the AFD (Anti Friction Device) system will ensure lateral release while avoiding being impacted by snow and ice.
If you wish to switch to walking mode, simply unlock the upper part and fold it forwards. As this toe piece is convertible, it is possible to remove it completely and store it in your rucksack to save 250g on the ascent. This way, you can just keep the insert when climbing up.
In addition, the multifunctional Lock & Walk brake systematically locks the ski-brake and has a heel lift with a 10° position that can be triggered with a pole. This binding also features the innovative heel counter Inter Pivot 3 with a magnesium shell that improves power transfer and energy absorption.
The Duke PT 16 is fully compatible with alpine ski, ski touring or GripWalksoles. Made for approach walks, experienced freeriders will be delighted with this binding, which performs as well as an alpine fixture.
