Ski Trab Attacco Gara Titan Binding

The Ski Trab Attacco Gara Titan Binding is a race binding for skimo racers and ultralight tourers who want a durable toe with no coiled springs. A one-piece titanium toe lever doubles as the spring and lets the toe wings flex independently, with a locked mode for climbing and an unlocked ski mode that meets ISMF rules. At 120 g per binding with the 5.0 spring, the Gara Titan tours either with the heel turning flat or by climbing on the flap atop the pins. With crampon attachments included, the Gara Titan suits skimo racing, fast tours and spring missions.

Why We Like It

  • The titanium toe lever doubles as the spring, so there are no coiled springs to ice up, and each toe wing flexes on its own under a twisting load.
  • Three heel U-spring versions, 4.0, 4.5 and 5.0, set vertical release; Ski Trab rates them as equal to release values of 5, 6 and 8.
  • At 120 g per binding with the 5.0 spring, the Gara Titan keeps a release heel and crampon attachments with very little weight.
  • Crampon attachments come in the box, so a ski crampon clips on for icy climbs.

Best Uses

  • Skimo racing
  • Ultralight touring
  • Spring couloirs with ski crampons
  • Race training
  • Narrow race and touring skis

Mounting and Setup Advice

Choose the heel spring by release value: Ski Trab rates the 4.0 spring as equal to 5, the 4.5 as 6 and the 5.0 as 8. A shop should match the version to your weight, height, age, boot sole length and skier type. The Gara Titan has no brake, so use a leash.

The binding needs certified tech inserts. The race heels are a fixed mount; Ski Trab's wider Vario adjustment plates add length adjustment if you need it. Bring your boots in so we can mount the heel to your sole.
