ATK RT 11 Evo Touring Binding

The ATK RT 11 Evo Touring Binding is a light touring binding for skiers who cover long distances and still want release they can tune at the toe. Release adjusts from 3 to 11 at the heel and the toe, and the automatic brake engages when the heel rotates to ski mode, so transitions take one motion. At 295 g per binding with brakes, magnetic heel flaps with three walking positions and 20 mm of length adjustment, the RT 11 Evo suits long tours, ski mountaineering and skis from 80 to 97 mm underfoot.

Why We Like It

  • 295 g per binding including the brake keeps a fully featured setup close to ski mountaineering weight.
  • The toe release adjusts along with the heel, so the front of the binding retains the boot in proportion to your setting.
  • Magnetic heel flaps hold each walking position firmly and flip with a pole tip, which saves bending over on steep skin tracks.
  • A removable crampon slot lets you carry crampon capability only on the tours that need it.

Best Uses

  • Long ski tours
  • Ski mountaineering
  • Lightweight touring skis 80 to 97 mm underfoot
  • Skiers from 30 to 95 kg
  • Fitness and uphill laps

Mounting and Setup Advice

Choose the brake equal to or up to 15 mm wider than the ski waist: 86, 91, 97 or 102 mm. ATK pairs the RT 11 Evo with skis from 80 to 97 mm underfoot and 1,000 to 1,600 g per ski. A shop should set toe and heel release for your weight, height, age, boot sole length and skier type and test it after mounting.

The heel gives 20 mm of length adjustment for a second pair of boots. The binding needs boots with certified tech inserts; bring them in and we will check them and set the release.
