***EARLY LIMITED RELEASE***
Salomon’s S/Lab Shift² 16 MN delivers true downhill performance in a touring binding. Prioritizing power and precision for the biggest lines, it keeps all the uphill freedom you’re not ready to give up. With a 16 DIN and reinforced toe and heel, this no-compromise binding is built for freeriders who charge every descent, and choose to earn it too.
BINDING TECHNOLOGIES
- Low profile Chassis: Low stand height for increased terrain feedback and enhanced power transmission.
HEEL
- HD Heel
- Easy climbing aids manipulation: Ensures easy switch with the poles between climbing aid positions.
MAIN MATERIAL
- Carbon-loaded PA: A very lightweight and resistant alloy of carbon and polyamid to fulfill the need for very light weight, extreme resistance and rigidity.
- Aluminium: A rigid and strong construction that allows enhanced power transmission.
- Glass-Fiber PA: A dedicated polyamide reinforced with fiber-glass which makes bindings lighter, durable, and with more tolerance on skis.
- Steel: Super rigid, non-deforming material that meets racers’ expectations in terms of power and precision.
PEDAL
- Sliding Toe pedal: A specific pedal mounted on a spring that allows lateral movements and re-centering. It allows any normed boot to release out of the binding in case of a lateral fall.
- Power Block AFD: A new micrometric, height-adjustable AFD with a single-block aluminum insert that supports the boot and provides 30% more lateral stiffness compared to previous generations.
TOE
- Hybrid Toe: Ultimate elastic travel allowing for the boots to be held back when shocks get bigger. Compatible with all the normed boots with no compromise on safety or performance.
- Elastic travel: The ultimate elastic travel on the wings. It holds the boot back when faced with bigger shocks and minimizes the risk of pre-release.
- Crampon system: Possibility to attach dedicated crampons to the binding.
- XL Wings: Long wings that envelop the tip of the boot perfectly in order to provide increased power transmission and confidence in freeride bindings.
