A minimalist binding for long outings The Dynafit Blacklight Carbon is a ski touring binding designed for practitioners seeking an excellent compromise between lightness, reliability, and performance in the mountains. Weighing only 280 g per binding, it caters to both enthusiasts of long races and fans of long traverses, while offering a higher level of equipment than models purely oriented towards competition. Entirely built around a machined aluminum structure combined with a carbon reinforcement, the Blacklight Carbon focuses on rigidity and precision without penalizing weight. Its proven Low Tech system ensures reliable fitting and excellent power transmission.
Versatility and safety The Blacklight Carbon features a lateral and frontal DIN adjustment from 5 to 12, allowing it to adapt to a wide range of skiers. It also offers 20 mm of boot length adjustment and a 10 mm ski flex compensation system, ensuring consistent release performance when the ski deforms. The three climbing positions allow easy adaptation of the heel riser height to the terrain, while ski brakes are available as an option according to needs.
For demanding hikers Positioned between ultra-light competition bindings and more versatile models, the Dynafit Blacklight Carbon targets skiers prioritizing uphill efficiency while maintaining excellent downhill performance. Its low weight, robust design, and proven technologies make it a reference for long days in the mountains and ski mountaineering.
