Yeah, everybody are saying: “TOO HEAVY etc… “, but till you don’t try it you can’t belive.

You’ll lift just 50gr.

No more ski and bindings weight will be lifted UP Vertically.

Of course will be just pulled up the components of ski+bindings weight that is maximum 20% of the total weight…

So 300gr plus are NOTHING.

PLS BEFORE MAKE A “VIRTUAL TEST” TRY IT tongue wink

We did several years of test and upgrade before exit onto the market: 30% lees energy, no more back pain, 30% longer step SO till 15% FASTER or 1 Hour more each 4… and fast recovery due to no more pain problems.

We are the first to say you that sometimes can happen than in sticky snow you’ve to lock it and use as normale but we are working on to reduce at few meter x years…

Not, at the moment, for racers, but just because racers has no time to lock and unlock it and clean locking system (once at the top) in case of icing. but we are working on also on this.

This was an unbleivable tech upgrade so work load for us.
