Salomon / Atomic S/LAB Shift MNC 13
There may be some new hybrid touring bindings on the block (hello Duke PT!), but the Salomon/Atomic Shift still remains a hugely viable and exceptionally popular option – for very good reason.
Combining the light weight and uphill workings of a pin binding with the elasticity and skiing performance of a true alpine binding, the Shift has single-handedly led the charge in creating the binding equivalent of a ‘one ski quiver’.
Weighing in just at 885g per unit, the Shift packs a whole lot of function and features for a mid-weight binding: easy step-in, great glide and range of motion when hiking, swift transition between touring and descent modes, and mucho shred-tastic capability when it’s time to rip back down.
Still a huge freetouring fave.
Also available in MNC 10 with 4-10 release.
Verdict
The binding equivalent of a ‘one ski quiver’ - still a huge freetouring fave.
