AlpenFlow Design- Find Your Flow
Why we built the AlpenFlow 89
We set out to build a binding that skis and releases like a true alpine binding—but that you’ll actually want to tour with. The AlpenFlow 89 is the one binding you need for your one-ski quiver. It’s built to handle everything from high-speed resort laps and variable conditions to big alpine missions. Burly enough to drop cliffs, light enough for multiple backcountry laps—this is the hybrid binding without compromise.
At its core, the 89 blends the fluid transitions and efficiency of skimo bindings with the power and reliability of the hybrid category in a way no binding has before. It’s designed for flow—on the skintrack, on the descent, and everywhere in between.
A Bomber Pin Binding
We know it sounds hard to believe, but our goal was simple: create a pin binding that skis like a true alpine binding. Our patented LockTurn toe piece mechanically locks the pins in place throughout its rotation eliminating pre-release risk. Once rotated, it disengages, allowing our heel piece complete control over release torque—matching the precision and reliability of a high-performance alpine setup.
Full Release Control
Our alpine-style heel piece controls release in both lateral and vertical directions, effectively doing the job of both the toe and heel in a traditional alpine binding. Working in tandem with the LockTurn toe, it delivers a fully controlled and predictable release, comparable to top-tier alpine systems. With large springs and generous elasticity, the heel is engineered to absorb energy and delay release—giving you a smoother ride and reducing the chances of unwanted ejections.
SkiMo Transistions
Transitions are smoother and faster than any other hybrid binding on the market. With the AlpenFlow 89, you can switch from ski to walk mode—and back—using just your pole, without ever stepping out of the binding. Our goal is to keep you focused on skiing, not fiddling with gear. Stay in the zone, stay in the flow—always in the mode you need to be in.
