Bindings + Skis + Skins
The perfect full setup for the ALPENFLOW 89. Build your one ski quiver that is perfect for any touring or resort day. The ideal setup to bring on ski trips.
With the Montamix Adrenaline, MONTANA is entering the world of glue that’s not too sticky, not not sticky, but juuust right. They call this adhesive FUSIONTEC, which they herald as being one of the best adhesives out there. Testing the skins for ourselves, we came away highly impressed and think you will too. This glueless adhesive (we promise this is a very real thing) allows for quick and easy application of the skin, reliable adhesion in colder weather, all while remaining easy to rip. In the event the adhesive gets a bit dirty, you can simply wash it without worrying about impacting the stickiness. Being made with both nylon and mohair, the Montamix Adrenaline skin finds a good middle ground for both durability and packability, while the plush itself offers reliable performance in all snow conditions. Don’t settle for less, get the MONTANA Montamix Adrenaline skin.
A Praxis favorite from the beginning, the BC Ski was designed to get you out there. We’ve focused on making the ski as lightweight as possible, without compromising the integrity of the ski itself.
The smooth, slow tip with modest rocker (complimentary to the modified sidecut) makes the ski nimble and maneuverable in soft snow, while the low camber and smaller sidecut allow for smoother turn initiation and quick edge-to-edge transition. Originally designed as a touring ski, the BC has grown in popularity as a lift access ski and is no stranger to the resort.
Perfectly pairing with the ALPENFLOW 89 as a one ski quiver your Praxis BC ski will feature custom ALPENFLOW graphics only available through this pre-order.

What The Pros Think
We think these bindings are amazing but don't take it from us, we only think we're the best skiers on the mountain. Our athletes, on the other hand, actually are.
What Makes the AlpenFlow 89 Special?
With bomber downhill performance, easy touring, and simple transitions, you'll spend less time thinking about your gear and more time enjoying skiing.
Our patent-pending Lockturn Toe Piece keeps you locked in while skiing and touring, only releasing when you want it to. The toe piece is free to rotate but is mechanically blocked from opening until your boot has rotated out of the binding. Preventing against pre-release and allowing for a controlled release in ski mode.
The LockTurn toe piece is paired with an alpine heel piece that controls the release in both the lateral and vertical directions. With fully adjustable release settings in both directions, the ALPENFLOW 89 skis and releases very similar to a typical downhill binding. They are NOT DIN CERTIFIED but release very similarly in our in-house testing.
A downhill capable touring binding with ski-mo transitions. The ALPENFLOW 89's transitions are what separate it from any other binding on the market. Our guided step in and toe brake make clicking in a breeze. Intuitively transfer between touring, risers, skiing, and back to touring in seconds with just your pole. Great for easy transitions in deep powder and managing rolling hills on the approach.
The ALPENFLOW 89 boasts 28mm of lateral and 10mm of vertical elasticity supplied by our beefy alpine heel piece. Allowing you to charge hard and absorb the chop without worrying about pre-releasing. It also features full forward pressure control and adaptation allowing you to fully flex you ski and arc your turns.
Manufactured entirely in house in Tahoe from aerospace grade 7075 aluminum, titanium, steel, bronze and Nylatron. The ALPENFLOW 89 is built to last. For that reason we offer a lifetime repair warranty on our bindings. If you have any issues, send it back and we will either fix it or send you a new one.

Feature Overview
Downhill Performance And Release
LockTurn Toe Piece
The LockTurn toe piece rotates freely in ski mode. Locking your boot in while skiing by mechanically blocking the pin arms from opening until the toe has fully rotated or the toe lever is pushed down, ensuring that you only release in the event of a fall. In touring mode the toe piece is is not free to rotate allowing for a reliable stable touring experience.
Alpine Heel Piece
The Alpine Heel Piece delivers precise control over boot release in both lateral and vertical directions. Featuring large springs, forward pressure control, 28mm of lateral and 9mm of vertical elasticity. This heel piece was built for maximum power transmission and shock absorption. Allowing for full ski flexion and optimal edge control.
Full Release System
The heel and toe pieces work together to deliver precise release control. The heel governs the torque needed to rotate the toe, which stays locked until it fully rotates. Release occurs when forces on the boot exceed the heel’s spring tension, allowing rotation in lateral or vertical directions. This rotation frees the toe to disengage, either by the toe piece completing its rotation or by the boot pitching forward to activate the toe lever.
Transitional FLOW
Toe Brake / Step-In
Step into the ALPENFLOW 89 by lining up your heel with the heel piece and rocking your boot forward. The toe brake lever guides your boot into position for a reliable and repeatable setp-in. The toe brake then stowes away and sucks into the ski ensuring it's never in the way when skiing or touring, never coming down on the tour.
Flow Transitions
Experience Flow State with seamless transitions. Using only your pole, transition between touring, skiing, and back to touring in seconds without having to take off your skis. This is escpecially useful in rolling hills and transitioning in powder.
To enter ski mode simply step in and then actuate the heel piece with your pole. For Touring mode, raise the toe lever up and push the heel piece down with your pole.
Heel Risers
Easily engage heel risers using the same mechanisms as the transition. Tilt your boot forward and actuate the heel pice to engage the first "built in" heel riser. Then for steeper slopes flip down the second riser from the heel piece. Easily adapt to any slope angle in seconds.
