How will some of the key features of the Marker Griffon X 13 enhance my experience?
The TP Elite X toe piece is constructed from a single cast, making it more compact, stable, and lightweight than previous designs. A significantly reduced stand height of 9 mm at the toe and 14 mm at the heel enhances power transfer by placing the skier closer to the ski. The integrated brake also plays a key role in creating a low-profile feel. A more robust anti-ice rail made from new alloy prevents snow build-up, while the Inter Pivot X heel offers a smooth, consistent release. The binding accommodates both Alpine (ISO 5355) and GripWalk (ISO 23223) boots.
