Salomon S/Lab Shift² MN 10 Alpine Touring Ski Bindings 2025
The Shift is essentially two bindings in one. A tech binding for the uphill and a full DIN binding for the downhill. This is one of the most popular alpine touring bindings we carry. It's great at both aspects; up and downhill skiing. It can be skied in the resort while also being more than capable on touring days.
NEW SHIFT, WHO DIS?
Maybe you haven't been able to get a Shift in the past because you weren't heavy enough, yes, the weight of the skier is a factor, and that's why Salomon made the Shift 10. The Salomon Shift 10 is a great option for skiers under 140 pounds or less aggressive skiers in general. The performance of the binding is still there it just has a lower-duty spring in the toe and heel. Having 'less' spring only affects the DIN setting, power transmission is equal between Shift 10 and Shift 13. The Shift2 offers a more user-friendly experience with improved durability in the binding and a less finicky AFD adjustment on the toe. The Shift2 is the best binding for lighter-weight skiers who want a binding that is just as comfortable lapping groomers as it is skinning technical lines in the backcountry.
*Not compatible with boots that DO NOT have full toe and heel lugs: i.e Atomic Backlands, Arc'teryx Procline, Dynafit Hoji, Salomon X-Alp...are a few to name.
Tech Specs
The Shift2 10 is an alpine touring binding for lighter-weight skiers who don't need a huge DIN range. It performs well in resort settings and feels almost the same as a downhill binding but it's lightweight construction and smooth walk function take this binding to a new level.
