Fritschi Tecton 12 Binding Review
Fritchi’s new Tecton 12 Bindings are a lightweight, fully DIN certified tech binding which performs like an alpine binding on the ski down and a tech binding on the climb up. Fritschi combined their Vipec toe piece with a more alpine style heel piece that moves back and out of the way in tour mode. The real magic with this binding, however, is the fact that both the toe and heel units have a release value or DIN setting. This provides a more reliable release which can be tailored to an individual’s weight and ability, more like an alpine binding. The Tecton’s (and Fritschi Vipec) toe piece is quite unique in that it has a built-in lateral safety release that allows it to be set for specific release forces.Read the full review of the Fritschi Tecton 12 Bindings here.
