Salomon S/Lab Shift2 13 Multinorm Ski Bindings

Meticulously redesigned, these 13 DIN bindings take your skiing performance to the next level while staying true to the innovative spirit that made the original SHIFT bindings a game-changer. At the core of their improved transmission is the new Power Block AFD, a micrometric, height-adjustable anti-friction device with a single-block aluminum insert. This upgrade delivers 30% more lateral stiffness compared to earlier models, enhancing control and responsiveness.

For added safety, the sliding toe pedal is mounted on a spring that allows for lateral movement and automatic re-centering. This ensures that any norm-compliant boot can safely release during a lateral fall, maintaining confidence on unpredictable terrain. Ease of use is another standout feature, with climbing aids that are easily adjustable using ski poles, streamlining transitions in touring mode.

The XL Wings are engineered for optimal power, wrapping around the boot tip for improved energy transfer and greater stability, especially important in freeride conditions. A low-profile chassis keeps you closer to the snow, enhancing terrain feedback and delivering more precise power transmission.

Advanced safety is also reinforced with exceptional elastic travel in the toe wings, which helps absorb big shocks while reducing the risk of pre-release. The bindings are compatible with dedicated crampons for added versatility in challenging terrain.

Constructed from high-quality materials, including aluminum for rigidity and strength, and carbon-loaded polyamide for lightweight durability, these bindings balance weight and performance with ease. The hybrid toe design provides maximum elastic travel and is compatible with all normed boots, ensuring reliable retention and release without sacrificing safety. Meanwhile, the hybrid heel features a rigid aluminum lever and carbon-infused polyamide body, combining strength and low weight for consistent perf
