Sneak Peek: Dynafit Blacklight Bindings - VIDEO

    Fritz Barthel invented the tech binding in 1986 and in 1990 Dynafit licensed his patent and since then the company has been constantly innovating. The latest evolution of their efforts is the new Dynafit Blacklight Binding. This is a crazy lightweight tech binding (560g for the pair) with a DIN of 5-12. It uses a new aluminum Radical toe piece with a bayonet locking heel system that offers a full 10mm of adjustment for boots with different sole lengths. There are Ultra High Risers on the heel piece so you can be aggressive on the skin track since their weight won’t slow you down. 

    Check out the following video for a closer look and more details:
     
    Materials:
    Forged Aluminum
    High Tech Synthetic
    Stainless Steel

    Features:
    Fixed front release
    Ice breaker pins
    Optional ski brakes
    Adjustable length +/- 5mm

    Specs:
    Weight: 560g (per pair)
    DIN: 5-12
    Brakes: Sold separately
