The New Eagle ski touring binding from Diamir is now available. The Eagle replaces the explore but features an improved and more effcient walking system.
The goal was to move the binding hinge back under the toe of the boot. This would reduce the effort required for each step. The only downside with this is that on steep terrain the front of the binding hits the top of the ski. To overcome this problem, at a certain angle the whole Eagle binding slides backwards along the binding rail to give better clearance at the front. Diamir felt that this was a more robust solution the the problem that the double hinge used by Naxo. Diamir have a nice animatiion on their site HERE
The Eagle also has it own version of the Axion crampon
The New Eagle binding is in stock now, as are fresh stocks of the Freerides, Axion Crampons and Coll Tex CamLock Skins.
Everything you need except the snow!
Happy Touring.
