Marker's Duke PT takes a radical approach to combining top alpine performance with lightweight ascending by using an innovative Ride & Hike toe. For walking, the upper part is unlocked & removed revealing a pin system, the upper section is then stored in a backpack. For the descent the upper jaw is locked back into place & the binding becomes a high-performance alpine unit that will take on any terrain. The PT 12 uses the Hollow Linkage Heel that is lighter than the version on the PT 16 but retains excellent torsional strength & a robust construction. The DIN range on this model starts lower & doesn't go as higher, better suiting lighter or less aggressive skiers. Overview Binding Type Backcountry Hybrid (Multi Norm Alpine on descent & Pin Cert on ascent) Boot Compatibility In Alpine mode it will accept boots with any DIN standard (Alpine ISO 5255, Tour ISO 9523, Grip Walk, WTR), this does exclude the lightest models of pin boot that fall outside of DIN Norms. To use the climbing function a boot with pin inserts at the toe is required. Skier Type Freerider, Backcountry. Skiers where the descent is the most important part but they're prepared to skin to get there. The DIN range of the PT 16 won't work for a lot of skiers who are lighter or less agressive. So, the PT 12 has the performance & retention you expect of a Marker Alpine binding &, with a simple unlocking mechanism, can be converted to a highly effecient Pin model for ascending. Key Features SKIING, Auto Quad Lock The alpine toe part locks itself at 4 different points automatically when stepping into the binding to ensure maximum safety.SKIING, Hollow Linkage Heel The Hollow Linkage Heel optimises retention for alpine & touring soles. The hollow axle saves on weight & maximizes the torsional stiffness. The robust construction suits even the most strenuous activity.SKIING, Anti Ice Rail A metal rail on the toe piece can be used to scratch off ice & snow below your boot sole to easily step into the binding.SKIING/CLIMBING, Ride & Hike Toe All the Marker Royal Family downhill performance & boot retention you'd expect with a releasable housing to reveal pin-technology for strong & efficient uphill performance. To use the walking mode, the upper part of the toe is simply unlocked, tilted forward & removed, this uncovers the pin binding. Unclipping & removing the upper section saves 300g per foot. When it's time to ski, the top section is clipped back to the base plate, secure by the Auto Quad Lock technology.CLIMBING, Lock & Walk Brake A simple flick of a switch in the brake effortlessly locks the brakes out of the way &
