PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
With the TLT Vertical FT 12 Binding, Dynafit has created far and away the lightest 12 DIN touring binding on the market. The world-renowned light weight performance of the Dynafit binding system finally includes a 12-DIN model for backcountry skiers who demand maximum lockdown for aggressive riding, without the weight penalty of heavier AT bindings. A long-time favorite of ski mountaineers and hardcore backcountry enthusiasts from the Tetons to Everest, the patented Dynafit binding system lets you fly up skin tracks, and the four-point boot/binding link and torsion bridge between toe and heel units provides for unprecedented power transfer to your skis.
Bottom line
The Dynafit TLT Vertical FT 12 Binding shines on climbs where light weight is key and extreme descents where coming out of your skis is not an option.
Product Reviews
Great Bindings
These are my first pair of Dynafit bindings (switched from Fritschi) and I am now a huge fan! Initially I was hesitant (a little less inspiring when you look down and don't see a substantial binding). The first few times out were like switching to SPD bicycle pedals, a little finicky but after a small adjustment period I am as fast as friends using other systems. Slightly heavier than the Dynafit TLT speed bindings (335g from Dynafit's website), however the extra DIN is worth it. I have not released from these bindings yet and the ability to lock the toe on those sketchy runs is a huge plus (definitely won't lose your skis). I have these mounted on a pair of Volkl Gotamas and I had to bend out the brakes slightly to fit the 105mm waist. The only negative is that the DIN markings and logos on the top of the heal piece are starting to fade with wear from contact of the soles of my boots however this is a minor issue.
