Dynafit Blacklight Alpine Touring Binding

The Dynafit Blacklight Alpine Touring Binding is a light pin binding for ski mountaineers and fast tourers who still want a wide lateral release range for the descent. Lateral release adjusts from 5 to 12 with a fixed vertical release, and ice breaker pins clear the boot inserts as you step in. At 280 g per binding with two climbing heights, a crampon slot and a brake sold separately in 75, 90 or 105 mm, the Blacklight suits long tours, ski mountaineering and fitness laps.

Why We Like It

  • Lateral release adjusts from 5 to 12, so heavier and more aggressive skiers can set a lateral value that holds in a 280 g binding.
  • Ice breaker pins clear ice from the boot inserts as you step in, which makes entry more reliable on cold transitions.
  • The brake is sold separately, so a ski mountaineering setup can stay brakeless while an all-round setup takes a 75, 90 or 105 mm brake.
  • A crampon slot takes Dynafit ski crampons for icy skin tracks and spring couloirs.

Best Uses

  • Long ski tours
  • Ski mountaineering
  • Fitness and uphill laps
  • Spring couloirs with ski crampons
  • Lightweight touring skis up to 105 mm underfoot

Mounting and Setup Advice

If you add a brake, choose one equal to or up to 15 mm wider than the ski waist: 75, 90 or 105 mm. Without a brake, ski with a leash. A shop should set lateral release and confirm the fixed vertical release suits your weight, height, age, boot sole length and skier type and test it after mounting.

The Blacklight needs boots with certified tech inserts at the toe and heel. The two climbing heights switch with a pole, so practice the change at home before your first tour. Bring your boots in and we will check the inserts and set the release.
