Dynafit Blacklight Long Travel Touring Binding

The Dynafit Blacklight Long Travel Touring Binding is a light pin binding for skiers who share one pair of skis across several boots or several people. The heel slides through 50 mm of length adjustment, enough to cover a wide spread of boot sole lengths without remounting, and lateral release adjusts from 5 to 12 while vertical release is fixed. At 420 g per binding with brakes, two climbing heights and a bayonet lock at the heel, the Blacklight Long Travel suits household quivers, loaner skis and everyday touring.

Why We Like It

  • 50 mm of length adjustment at the heel lets one mount fit boots across a wide span of sole lengths, from a light touring boot to a freeride shell.
  • Lateral release adjusts from 5 to 12, so a shop can set it for each adult who shares the ski.
  • The included brake is removable, so a skier who wants to save weight can run it with a leash instead.
  • A bayonet lock ties the heel housing to its base for direct power transfer, and ice breaker toe pins clear the inserts on step-in.

Best Uses

  • Skis shared between several boots or skiers
  • Loaner and family touring skis
  • Everyday backcountry touring
  • Skiers between boots

Mounting and Setup Advice

Lateral release adjusts from 5 to 12, but vertical release is fixed, so a shop should confirm the fixed vertical value suits each skier who will use the ski. With 50 mm of length adjustment, have the shop reset the heel and recheck release every time the boot changes; a heel set for one boot is wrong for another.

Choose a brake equal to or up to 15 mm wider than the ski waist: 75, 90 or 105 mm. Every boot that goes in this binding needs certified tech inserts at the toe and heel.
