Criteria to consider

• Weight: Important if you are touring. Lighter models reduce effort on the ascent.
• Brake size and width: Must match the width at the waist of your ski. For narrow skis, choosing a 85-100 mm binding is often suitable.
• Compatibility: Check the sole standard of your boots and compatibility with the binding (alpine, touring, hybrid).
• DIN value: Adjusted according to your weight, height, level, and skiing style. It determines the release force.
• Manufacturing quality and warranty: Prefer certified and well-reviewed products for safety.
• For very wide skis in freeride, choosing a 115-130 mm binding helps avoid the brake catching the snow.

How to properly install bindings

1. Check the compatibility of the plate/sole and the BSL (Boot Sole Length) of your boots.
2. Mark the recommended location on the edge according to the type of ski and the advised mounting center.
3. Drill and mount the binding while respecting the manufacturer's torque specifications.
4. Adjust the front/rear range for the sole length and set the DIN value according to your personal data.
5. Perform a release test and visually check the alignment and safety.

If you are unsure, have your bindings mounted and adjusted by a professional to ensure safety and performance.
