Backcountry Ski & Snowboard & Telemark facts, news, analysis (and other stuff) New Dynafit "Comfort"
binding Yipee! All of us who knew in our hearts that the Tri-Step binding toe wasn't working up to current standards are now validated. Following de-fluffed and copy edited press release explains. More to come. March 19, 2003 The Dynafit Tri-Step binding has been redesigned and improved for Fall 2003, and will ship in its new form and under its new name, the TLT Comfort Binding. Many who tried the Tri-Step were happy with certain features, such as the ease of rotating the heel unit, but found that the Tri-Step lacked the reliability and ease-of-use that the original TLT toe provided. "The consumer wanted the intuitive and simple toe piece of the original Tourlite Tech (TLT) binding, but they also wanted the easy and comfortable to use heel piece of the Tri-Step binding...now they can have it all in one binding," said Tim Kelley, Life-Link / Dynafit Product Manager. The New TLT Comfort Binding will offer all the best features of the Tri-Step heel piece including being adjustable to three shell sizes, the easy to install ski brake system, and the tube shaped climbing step for comfortable position changes while touring. The new toe piece of the TLT Comfort will feature the simple, effective, audible, locking toe-piece found on the original TLT binding. Dynafit will continue to offer the tried and true TLT binding.
