Ski Bindings for Every Adventure

At Peter Glenn, we offer ski bindings to match your skiing style and goals. Whether you're carving resort runs or exploring backcountry terrain, we have the perfect binding for you. Our collection includes downhill bindings for aggressive carving, backcountry bindings with walk mode for uphill travel, and alpine touring bindings that blend downhill performance with touring capabilities. We carry bindings compatible with various boot soles, including alpine, touring, and GripWalk, and adjustable DIN settings to fine-tune release tension. Our experts are here to help you find the right setup for a safe and enjoyable skiing experience.

 

Understanding Ski Binding Components

Modern ski bindings feature precision-engineered components that work together to secure your boot and provide controlled release when needed. The toe piece clamps down on the toe of the boot to hold it in place, while the heel piece locks the heel securely and releases during forward or twisting falls. Many bindings include a binding plate or heel plate that elevates your boot for improved leverage and power transfer. Some advanced binding designs incorporate a pivot bar for smoother, more natural flex patterns. Understanding how these components function helps you choose a binding that matches your skiing style and ability level, from a beginner skier learning the basics to a competitive ski racer pushing for maximum performance.

 

Caring for Your Ski Bindings

Proper maintenance keeps your bindings performing reliably season after season. After each ski day, wipe down your bindings with an old towel to remove snow, moisture, and debris that can cause corrosion or interfere with the binding's release mechanism. Periodically check that all screws are secure and inspect the toe piece and heel piece for signs of wear. Store your skis and bindings in a soft bag or padded ski bag to protect them during transport and off-season storage. Before each season, have your bindings professionally inspected to fine-tune grip and release settings and ensure all safety features are functioning properly.

FAQs

How do I know which ski bindings are right for me?
Choosing the right ski bindings depends on your skiing style, ability level, and the type of terrain you prefer. Alpine bindings work well for resort skiing, while touring bindings offer versatility for backcountry skiing. Our experts can help match a binding to your boots and skis.
What is a DIN setting, and why does it matter?
The DIN setting determines how easily your binding releases during a fall. A properly adjusted DIN helps protect against injury while keeping your boot securely attached during normal skiing. Your ideal setting depends on factors like weight, height, ability, and boot sole length. If you're unsure how to adjust your ski bindings or find the correct DIN setting, check out our blog on how to adjust ski bindings for step-by-step instructions and helpful tips.
Are these bindings compatible with my ski boots?
Most ski bindings we carry are compatible with standard alpine boot soles, and many also accommodate GripWalk and touring boot soles. If you're unsure about compatibility, our staff can help confirm the right match for your setup.
What's the difference between alpine bindings and touring bindings?
Traditional alpine bindings are designed for downhill skiing at resorts and provide maximum power transfer. Touring bindings allow the heel to lift for uphill hiking, then lock down for descents, ideal for skiers who want to explore backcountry terrain.
How do I maintain my ski bindings?
Wipe your bindings down after each use to remove snow and moisture. Store them in a protective bag and have them professionally inspected each season to ensure proper function and safety.
Does Peter Glenn offer binding mounting services?
Yes, we offer professional mounting services to ensure your bindings are properly installed and adjusted for your boots and skiing ability.
