Having the heel suddenly "release" has been my only issue with the binding. Hi,

Do you have any info on that binding, especially its slop/flex compared to the other AT bindings? Lou, just found out about the Fritschi Freeride Pro.

Have you tested the Fritschi Eagle for this, as it is supposed to be better than previous Fritchis in this respect? If not, could you do this test, and publish your results as you did with the other bindings. Also, what new developements with there be with Fritschi bindings for next season? I couldn't find that info in your blog, if you already published it, please tell me where....... I don't like Dukes, and want an AT binding that is easier to step into than Dynafits, but still has good edge hold.
