G3 Onyx Alpine Touring Bindings - REVIEW
The Onyx is a “tech” binding—meaning it works only with Dynafit compatible boots. They’re the ones with the little holes on either side of the toe and the cut-out and metal insert on the heel. Virtually every AT boot maker offers tech-compatible boots these days. I think it’s really the only way to go—I’d even go so far as to say any tech binding is better than a “standard” binding. The beauty of the tech rig is clear on the up. Unlike other bindings, tech binding design means you aren’t lifting a clunky, heavy binding heel piece with every step. It’s a fundamental difference that you’ll realize immediately when you experience it.
