HY13 FREE (25-26)

ATK 's HY13 FREE is a high-performance "tech" (insert) touring binding. It is essentially an optimized version of the famous ATK Raider, designed for skiers looking for the perfect balance between lightness for ascent and power for descent (Freerando).

Technical Description

• Downhill performance: Unlike many lightweight bindings, the HY13 features an Elastic Response System at the rear, allowing the ski to flex naturally under compression, improving precision and safety.

• Power transfer: its wider base is designed for wide freeride skis, ensuring direct transmission of movement to the edges.

• Heel Flaps: MagnetoHeel Flaps with 5 different positions, easy to manipulate with the pole.

• Release adjustment: Lateral and vertical adjustment (DIN) from 5 to 13, suitable for aggressive skiers and heavier builds.

Key features

• Weight: Approx. 335 g to 350 g per binding (incredibly light for a 13 DIN binding).

• Materials: Aeronautical aluminum (7075), stainless steel and high-quality Polymo.

• Snow Pack Proof: Front stop design prevents ice and snow accumulation under the inserts.

• Brakes included: Available with different brake widths (often 97mm, 102mm, 108mm or 120mm).

Why choose the HY13 (ATK)?

This is the ideal binding for HEAD Kore skis. It's much stiffer and safer than a classic ultra-light touring binding, yet twice as light as a hybrid binding like the Salomon Shift or Marker Duke PT.
