22 Designs Axl Binding

The Axl is specifically designed for NTN (New Telemark Norm) boots. It is not compatible with 75mm duckbill boots.

The true free-pivot mechanism allows for a natural, unrestricted stride during the ascent. It eliminates resistance at the toe, making long tours significantly more efficient and less fatiguing.

Yes, the Axl features integrated preload adjustment. You can easily dial in the tension to create a stiffer feel for hard-charging on groomers or a softer, more active flex for deep powder days.

The 6-hole mounting pattern provides an exceptionally secure connection between the binding and your ski. This 'bombproof' design ensures the binding stays firmly in place, even under the high torque and stress of aggressive telemark skiing.

Yes, it comes equipped with a Double Up Heel Climber. This system features two bails, allowing you to easily adjust your heel height to match the steepness of the terrain.

The step-in mechanism is designed to be operated entirely with your ski pole, so you don't have to bend down to lock in. It’s a quick, reliable system that makes transitioning from touring to downhill skiing seamless.
