I see some inadvertent toe turntabling tele turns with a locked toe and a released heel in some people's futures. Quite a bit of cash though after adding some proprietary boots to work with them. Could add a couple more ski/binding sets instead. As a patroller running toboggans the high release sounds good but I need a poleless step in/step out solution. The combination of an alpine heel and a tech toe sounds like a good lightweight option that would work well, any non frankenstein options out there yet?

What will prevent this from happening while skinning? How is the binding designed to change from tour to ski mode? Thanks!

Hoji could have done way more vert on a pinner rando set-up, but then all the joy of hauling down waist deep powder and taking big air would have been robbed from him. Backcountry skiing is about fun not just vert. Sort of a pointless question . . .

Trevor,. that begs the question, could Hoji have done 12,000 in a day if he'd had something lighter? See, excellent point.
