Why Choose the Raider EVO?
Let's break it down: The Raider EVO is the first-ever pin binding with an adjustable release value in the toe piece, allowing you to fine-tune it to match your heel setting perfectly. Unlike traditional bindings, where the toe and heel piece may not always work in harmony, the Raider EVO’s innovative design ensures balanced and reliable release performance across all settings.
In addition to this groundbreaking feature, the Raider EVO maintains its Aluminum Snowpack Proof System, which prevents snow buildup for a smooth ride, and its Uphill Hardness Variator and smart geometries make stepping in easy. An integrated crampon support adds extra stability for those challenging climbs.
The heel piece now rotates up to 25 degrees, absorbing shocks and stress more effectively than previous models, which only offered a 16-degree range. This wider rotation enhances energy absorption and a more centered return. Plus, the EVO system makes switching between uphill and downhill modes incredibly simple—just rotate the head, step in, and you’re ready to go. Locking in for the ascent is just as easy.
The Raider EVO also retains the Cam Release System, which offers effortless step-in and impressive torsional stiffness, giving you full control on tricky turns. The Elastic Response System ensures precise releases and lets your skis flex naturally, boosting downhill performance. A double magnet system allows for quick adjustments on the go.
This binding is perfect for freeriders who demand a versatile binding that can handle any terrain, tech enthusiasts who appreciate the cutting-edge advancements, and skiers ready to invest in top-of-the-line gear that lets them focus on the thrill of the descent.
