Fritschi Tecton 13 skimo bindings, blue
Fritschi Tecton 13 alpine ski binding
The Fritschi Tecton 13 binding is designed for freeriders who demand uncompromising riding characteristics, high safety and low weight for off-piste ascents in virgin powder. The Fritschi Tecton 13 is the first freeride toe binding with a safety toe and the stiffest downhill heel on the market. For anyone looking for a binding for both downhill and pedaling, but don't want to compromise on factors such as safety, binding stiffness, and riding characteristics.Pedaling and yet downhill binding
Downhill bindings are proven and their heel construction is unsurpassed, and that's where the Fritschi Tecton 13 comes from. Its rigid, non-rotating , jointless heel has no play and allows direct transfer of forces from the skier to the edge of the ski. This results in better handling and driving safety. Furthermore, a better transmission of forces is also achieved by means of:- The skier is pressed by the heel jaw over a large area
- Grooves in the heel fit into the inserts on the shoe, increasing the lateral stiffness of the binding.
- I rest my ski boot on the heel pad.
- Large screw spacing
- By attaching the heel directly to the ski
- Large and wide contact area under the toe and heel
Really stiff heel for a perfect riding experience
The skier won't move a millimeter in the heel thanks to the Power Rail grooves that extend from the heel and fit precisely into the grooves in the ski boot designed for the rear binding tips. This way , the ski boot is fixed in both vertical and horizontal directions and your every movement is transferred from the ski boot to the ski without loss of energy. Thanks to this, you will be able to control the skis perfectly and have the much-needed confidence when driving. This will be appreciated not only by every good rider, but also by a beginner who is still getting used to free terrain.Excellent skiing thanks to the active heel
The active sliding heel adapts to the skier by up to 10 mm when the ski bends during skiing and allows for smooth bending of the ski along its entire length, which is a necessary binding feature for perfect skiing. A binding that does not have an active heel will prevent the ski from bending, stiffening the middle, and the ski will bend only before and behind the binding, which significantly worsens its driving characteristics. Fritschi has eliminated this problem, which is why the Tecton 13 binding is also great for all-day resort skiing.The highest safety for spike bindings
The Fritschi Tecton 13 ski touring binding is based on the design of a downhill binding, where the tip opens sideways according to the DIN release force setting . Thanks to this, it switches off precisely under rotational forces and torsional fractures do not occur. Health and safety is the main principle that the Swiss manufacturer Fritschi deals with in the development of its products. Safety is more important than weight.Only turns binding off when you really need it
With classic spike bindings, it is easy to accidentally switch off during a descent, which can have fatal consequences on steep descents. The construction solution of the toe and foot of the Tecton 13 binding has a dynamic elasticity of 13 mm or 9 mm, which in other words can be imagined as clearance to absorb the forces arising from driving over bumps or sudden impacts. Even when driving vigorously on hard or heavy snow , there is no unwanted shutdown.- The Fritschi Tecton 13 does not turn off too early, but only after overcoming a distance of 13 mm laterally at the toe and 9 mm upwards at the heel.
- This distance is sufficient to consume energy so that the binding does not switch off unintentionally after briefly exceeding the set DIN switching force - during a jump or impact on an uneven surface.
- The binding releases sideways even with the toe set for walking - an important feature when buried in an avalanche, losing balance while climbing, or falling during short descents on tracks
- The dynamic elasticity of the Fritschi Tecton 13 binding is the same as the downhill bindings that Fritschi has been producing for more than 30 years and today uses this know-how in the development of alpine ski bindings.
Safe and lightweight freetouring binding
The weight of the equipment is also important, which is why the Fritschi Tecton 13 binding is made of carbon and glass fibers, now complemented by proven modern polymers. From design to production, everything takes place in Switzerland. Polymers reinforced with carbon and fiberglass are lighter than metal parts and at the same time have higher strength and durability. Although light weight is very important, the Fritschi brand always prioritizes safety and reliability.Easy to turn on even on a steep slope
- The new generation Fritschi Tecton 13 has an innovative designed tip that you can "kick" even blindly because it has:
- Bottom stops
- Side stops
- Ski boot tip stop
- Sensitive trigger
- Thanks to this, when fastening , the tip of the ski boot is precisely guided to the correct position - it is located between the tips and a sensitive trigger, and with just a little pressure it releases the tips, which fit precisely into the inserts in the ski boot.
|
It reliably and with Swiss precision only switches off at the moment of a fall, not when the terrain is uneven (the tip and heel of the binding can absorb shocks thanks to dynamic elasticity)
|
|
It switches off specifically even in walking mode - when buried by an avalanche, losing balance when climbing or falling during short descents on tracks
|
|
Stiff downhill heel for perfect power transfer from the legs to the skis - perfect downhill properties
|
|
The sliding heel adapts to the curvature of the ski, allowing you to fully utilize its potential.
|
|
Ability to switch from walking mode to downhill mode without untying the boots from the bindings
|
|
Controlling the binding with a stick or in a simple crouch is a bonus that will make a day hike more enjoyable.
|
|
Comfortable control with a pole or with bent knees – you can conveniently switch the binding to the climbing position and adjust the heel rest with a pole. To switch to downhill, the Fritschi Tecton 13 binding can be controlled with just a pole without having to bend over to the binding.
|
|
You activate the walking mode by lifting the heel, which then moves the entire heel backwards. You will appreciate this on ridge hikes or short descents during the ascent, when it is safer to fasten the heel on the straps in the downhill position to prevent snow from getting into it, which could compress and turn into ice.
|
|
The heel of the binding is adjustable up to 25 mm (60 mm when using a rental pad)
|
|
The binding is not compatible with “noseless” skis TLT 7, TLT 8, DNA, PDG, Arcteryx Procline, and all those that have a heel shorter than 6 mm such as Atomic Backland (an extension is required here)
|
|
Easily replaceable brakes (80/ 90/ 100/ 110/ 120 mm) make it possible to drill bindings on virtually any ski with a width of 70 mm or more
|
|
The binding is compatible with hardshells and does not require you to unclip from the binding when putting them on. The binding is also adapted for the use of a safety cable
|
|
Bindings work reliably in any snow and temperature
