can you give me a weight on each piece and a cost to ship to the US? 80216

50grams + 3 screws.

$165 +$30 shipping to the US
$140USD+30 shipping for toe piece only no adapter plate.

please explain no adapter plate? similar to the dynafit mounts? instead of 3 screws? pics of the touring piece please!

that’s even lighter than the super lights! 😯

This thread has been dead for almost 2 years. Anyone been riding these and want to give some feedback?

I received the toe piece after a lengthy delay. light and well made.
In the end I still prefer dynafits for touring though

Updated the tech binding design to work with La Sportiva Boots. La Sportiva is becoming more popular and for some reason they have a different soles to dynafit. More rocker and bigger sole around the toe. So added 3.5mm of height which took a bit of work with new fixtures and programing. All green anodized tech bindings ( currently shipping) are 3.5mm higher to work with almost every boot?

Made progress on climbing bars for hard and soft boots. Working on production side of the design. Some what harder than coming up with the stuff.

Were still slow and apologies on delays working hard to improve production and scale with demand. But its always a challenge. Tech bindings are shipping as i type and all should be out this week all new green anodized and La Sportiva compatible!

Some winter stoke. Loving the updates from the northern hemi already.

Yeah all hardboots will fit in green tech bindings. Scarpa was ok in the lower tech binding. You can also remove the carbon fiber adapterplate and direct mount to get extra clerence on the lower tech binding to make it work.

I have only seen a few La Sportiva models with clerence problems.

@vapor, can you expand on your comment about preferring Dynafits? The Rangers are about .77 lbf lighter than the Speed Radicals with adapter plates you can get from Spark. And $73 cheaper too.

Also, what solutions are people using for the heel risers? Without an adapter plate the heel riser will strike in the wrong place. This is the only thing really keeping me from pulling the trigger on getting me some. Well… that and availability.

@WhitePine, you might be able to get heel risers only from Phantom, they are the nicest that I’ve used so far.

Is there a DIN rating on the toe piece? How come I don’t see anything on DIN on splitboard toe pieces? One of the things I like about boarding over skiing is the lesser risk with my knees.

Like the look of the heel lock in ski mode. What is a splitboard like to ski? On rolling terrain this might be a really nice option to have until you get to more prolonged fall lines.

Yeah, that’s fair enough. I wasn’t looking for an accurate certified number, more just wondering what the equivalent number roughly would be.

I’ve got it in my head that I wouldn’t mind trying to ski mellow terrain rather than putting the board back together. No idea how half a board would ski though, but I’m not thinking as an objective anyway. Just an added flexibility in use.
That heel lock looks pretty sweet, but not having an idea on release strength makes me a little nervous.
