Product Info
Think the G3 Ion bindings are great? So do we, and we really couldn't think of how they could improve on them, until G3 announced the new Zed 12 Alpine Touring Ski Bindings. We're stoked, to say the least. The new Zed retains the great features pioneered in the Ion, including the spring-loaded zero gap heel, great retention in ski mode, easy clearing toe arms, and low binding ramp angle - and drops the weight to 358 grams per binding. As with the Ion series, you can clear snow from under the toe arms with a ski pole tip, and a Pozidrive #3 screwdriver adjusts both release value and fore/aft position. Forget the "Genuine" and "Guide," the G3 stands for "Genius" x 3.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.
