Voile TTS Transit Telemark Binding

The Voile TTS Transit Telemark Binding is a telemark touring binding for free-heel skiers who want to tour at pin-binding weight and still drive a real telemark turn on the way down. A tech toe holds the boot by its toe inserts, and a removable heel assembly with three activity positions lets the binding ski with a neutral feel like a 75 mm binding or an active feel closer to NTN. At 550 g per binding with the heel assembly, and 264 g lighter per binding with it stowed in the pack, the TTS Transit suits telemark touring, long approaches and spring missions.

Why We Like It

  • Pulling the heel assembly for the climb saves 264 g per binding, which leaves little more than a tech toe and risers on the ski for long approaches.
  • Three activity positions change how the binding skis, from a neutral feel like a 75 mm binding to an active feel closer to NTN, and spring cartridge options add finer tuning.
  • The tech toe holds the boot by its toe inserts, so the pivot is free and efficient on the skin track.
  • Crampon hooks come installed on the toe, so a ski crampon, sold separately, clips on for firm spring climbs.

Best Uses

  • Telemark touring
  • Long approaches where weight matters
  • Spring missions with ski crampons
  • Free-heel skiers touring with alpine touring partners
  • Telemark skiers who tune the binding to the snow

Mounting and Setup Advice

The TTS Transit has no release mechanism and no brake, so plan on leashes and ski it with that in mind. The heel assembly comes in sizes matched to boot size; confirm the size against your boot before mounting. When you move the cables to a different activity position, adjust the spring cartridges as Voile directs.

The binding needs a telemark boot with tech toe inserts. NTN boots with toe inserts work; boots without toe inserts do not. Bring your boots in so we can confirm the toe inserts, size the heel assembly and set up the cartridges.

Common Questions

Who should buy the Voile TTS Transit Telemark Binding?
The Voile TTS Transit Telemark Binding suits telemark skiers with tech-insert toe boots who want a light touring binding. It weighs 550 g per binding with the heel assembly, which comes off to save 264 g per binding for the climb, and three activity positions tune the turn.
What boots work with the Voile TTS Transit Telemark Binding?
The Voile TTS Transit works with telemark boots that have tech (pin) toe inserts, including NTN boots with toe inserts. NTN and 75 mm boots without toe inserts are not compatible, and neither are alpine, GripWalk or alpine touring boots. Check your boot for toe inserts before ordering.
Does the TTS Transit release?
No. The TTS Transit is not a safety binding and has no release mechanism. Ski it with leashes and with that in mind.
What do the three activity positions do?
Moving the cables between the three positions changes how active the binding feels. The forward position skis most neutral, like a 75 mm binding, and the rearmost is most active, closer to NTN. Adjust the spring cartridges when you change positions.
How much does the TTS Transit weigh?
550 g per binding with the heel assembly, risers and hardware. Removing the heel assembly saves 264 g per binding for the climb.
Does the TTS Transit have a brake?
No. Use a leash on every tour to keep a loose ski from sliding away.

Our Verdict

The Voile TTS Transit Telemark Binding brings pin-binding touring weight to telemark: a tech toe, a heel assembly that comes off to save 264 g per binding, and three activity positions that tune the turn from neutral to active. The binding has no release mechanism and no brake, which is the trade for its weight. Telemark skiers who want brakes and lift-served power should look at the Bandit; free-heel tourers with tech-insert boots should start here.

The Voile TTS Transit is a 550 g telemark tech binding with three activity positions and a heel assembly that comes off to save 264 g per binding for the climb.
