The system compensates for friction by utilizing two different release characteristics based on vertical load. In the event of a backward twisting fall, the toe wings are pushed upward and shift to a new pivot point. This modified leverage compensates for increased forces and guarantees consistent release behavior.\u003cbr\u003eTRP - Roller Pincer Toe System\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRP – Roller Pincer Toe System\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTYROLIA’s Roller Pincer Toe system (TRP system), featuring four rollers, ensures 180° release and precise ski boot centering.
