The Freetour is a zero compromise solution to alpine touring bindings. An extremely simple interchange combines the Look Pivot, the most trusted and reliable alpine binding, with the super-light efficiency of our pin-tech touring toe. It is hands down the best hybrid touring binding on the market. Keep reading to learn more.
Simple Changeout Interface
A simple and bomber base plate allows you to swap the tech toe and alpine toe in a matter of seconds while remaining fully secure.
FEATURES
Tech Freedom, Alpine Performance.
Our super light tech toe reduces touring weight to a minimum while maximizing efficiency. Replacing the Freetour Pivot alpine toe with the tech toe reduces the overall weight to just 1000 grams per ski.
The Freetour Kit maintains all of the reliability and performance of the most trusted alpine binding in skiing. Full alpine release and retention characteristics provide unmatched safety and durability.
Look Pivot Superiority
It is hard to understate the performance benefits of the Look Pivot binding. With significant elastic travel, the fastest recentering, a short mounting zone, and multidirectional release, the Pivot creates the best ski feel of any binding.
Simple CNC'd Aluminium Tech Toe
An ultralight tech toe with fewer moving parts keeps simplicity at the forefront.
Aluminium Pivot Toe
Featuring 45mm of elastic travel and 180⁰ multi-directional release, the all-metal RACE toe piece offers maximum power, precision, and durability.
Single Alpine/GripWalk Compatible AFD
Our standard AFD is compatible with both Alpine ISO 5355 and GripWalk ISO 23223 norms. We include a separate, interchangeable Touring ISO 9523 AFD for use with fully rockered soles.
Heel Assembly
The Freetour’s compact heel assembly mounts in two holes positioned in front of the heel piece. It includes a brake lock and two climbing bails at flat, 8 degree, or 12 degree climbing modes.
Ski Crampon Compatible
The crampon clip is compatible with all Dynafit style ski crampons, these are available in all ski widths on our accessories page.
Turntable Heel
The Pivot's turntable heel allows for rotational release around the tibial axis. This significantly reduces the chance of lower leg injuries, something most tech bindings fail to achieve.
Featuring 28mm elastic travel, short mounting zone and exceptional power transmission.
Freetour Kits Explained
Freetour Pivot
The Freetour Pivot 15 or 18 is a complete binding with everything you need to mount your skis up and go shred.
Freetour Upgrade Kit
The Freetour Upgrade Kit is all the components that will make those trusty Pivot 15 or 18s touring capable. You or a shop just have to upgrade your stock Look Pivot toe piece, mount them, and you’re dialed. Here are those Alpine Toe Conversion instructions.
Freetour Second Ski Kit
The Second Ski Kit is the cheapest way to get multiple pairs of skis set up if you already have a Freetour Pivot. You will need an extra set of Look Pivot heel pieces and will need to use the alpine toes and tech toes from your existing Freetour, as none of those are included with the Second Ski Kit.
Note
The Look Pivot 12 and 14 DO NOT WORK with the Freetour.
