Armada Shift² 13 MN — Alpine Touring Ski Bindings
Available in store
CloseProduct details
When the skin track out of Big White or Silver Star leads to untracked lines, you need a binding that climbs efficiently and still skis like an alpine binding on the way down. The Armada Shift² 13 MN is a redesigned hybrid binding that bridges tech-pin and alpine bindings, and Armada builds it for touring and freeride. This version gets an updated Block AFD and a reworked toe piece for better downhill performance, while keeping the uphill efficiency the Shift is known for. Because it's touring-capable, it suits skiers who split their time between lift-served terrain and backcountry laps.
| KEY FEATURES |
A DIN range of 6–13 covers a broad span of skiers who tour and ski freeride terrain One binding handles both the skin track and the descent, with a simple switch between hike and ski mode Multi Norm compatibility means it works with Alpine, GripWalk, Touring and WTR boot soles The updated AFD and toe piece improve downhill performance without giving up uphill efficiency |
|
WHO IS THIS FOR |
The Shift² 13 MN is built for skiers who want one setup for resort freeride days and backcountry tours. It suits skiers whose recommended DIN setting falls between 6 and 13 and who want alpine-style downhill performance without a dedicated lightweight touring binding. Our team at Fresh Air will help you match the right binding to your boots, skis or board, and ability level in-store at both Kelowna locations.
