The Marker Duke binding will be in its second season this year with a new white/copper color. – The binding is classed as a high performance ski binding with AT capability. – It has a din of 6-16 which is the highest in its class. Just about the whole Unofficial crew uses or has used this binding. – I would say we are all avid big mountain skiers. – If you are like us and care more about going down than up you will definitely want this binding. – It is by no means the lightest AT binding but definitely the strongest. – I have tested the binding out in everything from long hikes to dropping cliffs in big mountain Comps and it hasn’t failed me yet.
