The innovative Kingpin has earned its stripes as the performance standard in PinTech AT binding technology. With DIN/ISO 13992:2007 certification from Germany’s prestigious TÜV testing organization, the Kingpin’s unique toe and heel pieces are the culmination of years of R&D testing. Ease of use, DIN/ISO certified release function, and best of all, great power transmission while on the descent mean that you can have a perfect day in the backcountry on the Kingpin. Apart from these benefits this binding offers tremendous walking and step-in comfort, very simple step-in due to fixed stop points, wide drill pattern, 6-pack Power Springs on front and XXL Power Transmitter for impressive power transfer and climbing aids from 0° to 13°.

KINGPIN TOE
The PinTech design on the KingPin toe piece promotes an ergonomic rolling up the foot and the most direct possible connection to the ski. Six steel springs capture the energy optimally, up to a DIN setting of 13. Individually adjustable positioning blocks make it quick and easy to step in no matter what the conditions.

KINGPIN HEEL
The revolutionary heel construction for the PinTech bindings features wide sole contact points to deliver the kind of direct, lossless power transfer more frequently seen in alpine bindings.

CLIMBING AID (KINGPIN)
Good climbing aids have one thing in common: Whatever the situation, they can be operated by feel, even when the skier can´t see them clearly. Simplicity is a virtue here, and reduced exertion is even better. The KINGPIN wins hearts and minds through two integrated climbing aids (7° and 13°) that are easily deployed or stowed using the basket of the pole. They can also be operated conveniently using the tip of the pole, allowing them to work with any basket style. Because the climbing aids are positioned in the upper center of the heel piece, they are always easy to reach.

WALK/SKI MODES
The refined locking/unlocking procedure for the heel piece is part of the binding´s charm. It takes just one step to switch from walk to ski mode: Simply flip a lever, push down on the heel and you´re good to go. The mechanism works even in critical situations and challenging descents.

SAFETY RELEASE
The KINGPIN offers release functionality and values similar with those found on alpine bindings. The heel of the KingPin releases not only vertically but in addition sidewise. The energy, consistency and efficiency of the release of the KingPin heel are comparable with the standards for alpine bindings. The heel design with contact pressure and classical sole seat delivers perfect length compensation, preventing unintended releases or compromised ski flex. One major advantage of the KINGPIN in terms of safety is the possibility to ski in the unlocked position (lever on the heel in ´´ski,´´ not ´´walk´´ position!).
