Skitouring safetyExplained
Fritschi touring bindings distinguish themselves through new technological solutions. In a nutshell: strong on the descent and uncompromising in the defined release for injury prevention.
The new label "Fritschi Safety System - Made in the Swiss Alps" underlines the holistic approach of designing touring bindings not only for easy ascents, but also for safe and dynamic descents.
The origin is innovative, patented developments. The result: unique technologies for greater safety and performance at the lowest possible weight.
Technology
The downhill-oriented, reinforced hybrid binding (pin toe in front and alpine heel jaw in back) with a high DIN adjustment range offers maximum power transmission for precise and dynamic control of the skis.
Binding system
- Release and power transmission analogous to the alpine binding systems
- Pin toe with side release and DIN adjustment
- Heel jaw with vertical release and DIN adjustment
Specific features
- Fixed alpine heel with rail
- Lateral release at the toe with 13 mm elasticity per side
- DIN values adjustable at the toe and heel
- Emergency release during ascent
Technical data
System: Tech binding with fixed alpine heel
DIN value: 5 – 13
Weight: 550 g / unit without ski brake (50g)
Width ski brake: 80 / 90 / 100 / 110 / 120 mm

Technology
The integrated safety technology of alpine bindings, with lateral release at the toe and frontal release at the heel, ensure a secure hold in any situation and, if necessary, reliable release.
Binding system
- Release and power transmission analogous to the alpine binding systems
- Pin toe with side release and DIN adjustment
- Fixed pin heel-unit with vertical release and DIN adjustment
Specific features
- Fixed, non-rotating heel unit
- Lateral release at the toe with 13 mm elasticity per side
- DIN values adjustable at the toe and heel
- Emergency release during ascent
Technical data
System: Tech binding with fixed heel unit
DIN: 4 – 12
Weight: 500 g / unit without ski brake (50g)
Width ski brake: 80 / 90 / 100 / 110 / 120 mm

Technology
Among the lightweights, the Xenic is the only binding equipped with such a wide range of efficient safety technologies. There is no need to lock the system to prevent pre-releases when downhill skiing.
Binding system
- Rotating pin heel unit for sideways and frontal release.
Specific features
- Rotating, widely supported heel unit
- Horizontally sliding pin levers in the toe to prevent pre-releases without dangerous preventive locking when skiing
- DIN values for lateral and vertical release can be set separately and precisely
Technical data
System: Tech binding with rotating heel unit
DIN: 4 – 10 (Xenic 10) / 3 – 7 (Xenic 7)
Weight: 280 g / unit without ski brake (45 g)
Width ski brake: 75 / 85 / 95 / 105 mm
Available without ski brake

Technology
The Scout is almost as light as tech bindings and, in addition to outstanding downhill performance, offers the safety and ease of use of alpine bindings. Another safety plus is the crampons, which can be mounted before the ski tour and activated when needed during the ascent.
Binding system
- Hold boot, release and power transmission like piste bindings
- Toe jaw with lateral release and DIN adjustment
- Alpine heel with frontal release and DIN adjustment
Specific features
- Lightest frame binding
- Release system equivalent to alpine bindings
- Compatible with touring ski boots and alpine boots (even without inserts)
- Activatable crampons
Technical data
System: Frame binding with alpine standard
DIN: 3 – 11
Weight: 790 g / unit without ski brake (100g)
Width ski brake: 80 / 90 / 100 / 115 mm

Compact Modul
The Compact Module integrates various Fritschi technologies and ensures that they work reliably under all conditions.
Optimal walk mode levels
Change between four optimally synchronized walk mode levels with maximum ease using the ski pole.
Activatable crampons
The Axion crampon is fixed in place before the tour. The blade can be flipped down with the pole if required.
