Marker Kingpin M-Werks 12 is an update of the popular Kingpin. Marker has pushed down the weight of this binding to get it as light as possible while maintaining the downhill characteristics from the original Kingpin. Kingpin M-Werks has gotten a broader mounting pattern to achieve a better transmission of power in the back binding, as well as the light front binding from Marker Alpinist. You can walk entirely flat or with a 7 or 13 degree heel lift. The adjustment from walk- to skiing mode has become easier with the new lever. In this product, Marker delivers a powerful and solid downhill-oriented binding for ski touring.
