Marker Duke PT 16 is the next generation hybrid binding. This binding is developed to give you a feeling of having a powerful alpine binding downhill, that also works great while ski touring in steep terrain, just as any other tech binding. These features increases the weight a bit, but to an eager freeskier this will be a great choice. The top part of the front binding can easily be taken off during the hike upwards, and then put back on when it's time to ski downhill. Downhill you will have a reliable alpine binding to get the most out of your skiing. Marker Duke PT is delivered with a 0 and a 10 degree heel lifter, and has a solid build.
