Marker Kingpin 13
With a new two spring toe based on Marker’s Alpinist tech, this year’s Kingpin may be lighter than ever before (80g lighter per toe), but it’s still the same super-powerful backcountry boss.
Ideal for freeriders and ski tourers who want max ski performance in a pin package, the Kingpin 13 comes with heaps of top-level tech, including easy step-in, heel risers up to 13°, adjustable vertical release, toe piece ‘release lockout’ when skinning, and extra springs in the toe that prevent pre-release and loss of power transfer.
The rear is all about ski performance with a more traditional alpine-style heel piece that holds the boot firmly in place, and provides optimal power transmission and safety levels.
There’s also a DIN 10 option for more consistent release for lighter skiers.
