Low-Stand Freeride Alpine Binding

Marker Griffon X MWerks 13 Alpine Binding

The Marker Griffon X MWerks 13 Alpine Binding is an alpine binding for advanced freeride and park skiers up to 120 kg. The integrated brake lets the chassis sit lower than Marker's standard freeride bindings, which puts the boot closer to the ski for direct power transfer. At 1,130 g per binding with release from 4 to 13 and brakes in 90, 105 or 120 mm, the Griffon X MWerks 13 suits freeride and big-mountain skiing, park and freestyle and hard-charging resort days.

Why We Like It

  • The integrated brake drops the stand height, putting the boot closer to the ski for sharper edge feel.
  • Release from 4 to 13 on the Inter Pivot X heel holds the boot through landings and chop.
  • MWerks components cut weight while keeping the binding stiff.
  • Three brake widths, 90, 105 and 120 mm, cover park skis through wide freeride skis.

Best Uses

  • Freeride and big-mountain skiing
  • Park and freestyle
  • Hard-charging resort days
  • Skis 75 to 120 mm underfoot

Mounting and Setup Advice

Choose the brake equal to or up to 15 mm wider than the ski waist: 90, 105 or 120 mm. A certified technician should mount the binding, set release for your weight, height, age, boot sole length and skier type, and test it.

The X chassis takes alpine and GripWalk soles; ask us before mounting for an ISO 9523 touring sole.
