Marker Duke PT 16 Alpine Touring Binding

The Marker Duke PT 16 Alpine Touring Binding is a hybrid freeride touring binding for strong, heavy freeride skiers from 60 kg. In ski mode the Ride & Hike toe and Inter Pivot 3 heel work like a freeride alpine binding with certified release from 6 to 16; for the climb the upper toe tilts away, or comes off to save 300 g, uncovering a pin toe. At 1,350 g per binding, in ski mode, the Duke PT 16 suits freeride touring, big-mountain skiing and resort and backcountry crossover.

Why We Like It

  • Release from 6 to 16 is ISO certified at both toe and heel.
  • Removing the upper toe for the climb saves 300 g per binding, dropping uphill weight to 1,000 g.
  • Sole.ID adjusts the binding for alpine, GripWalk, Walk to Ride or touring soles.
  • The Lock & Walk unit locks the brake and gives a 10 degree climbing aid.

Best Uses

  • Freeride touring
  • Big-mountain skiing
  • Resort and backcountry crossover
  • Wide skis up to 125 mm

Mounting and Setup Advice

Choose the brake equal to or up to 15 mm wider than the ski waist: 100 or 125 mm. A certified technician should set the Sole.ID for your boot, set release from 6 to 16 and test it.

To tour, the boot needs certified tech inserts at the toe. Marker lists the Duke PT 16 for skiers from 60 kg.
