A new addition for Armada coming in stylish jet black, the Armada Shift MNC 13 Alpine Touring Ski Bindings promise to take you to new heights both in and out of bounds. A totally new concept developed from scratch by Amer co-brand Salomon, the Shift toe piece changes from a low profile conventional toe in ski mode to a fully “pinned” tech toe for skinning. The binding feels like a lighter, lower Warden 13 going downhill, then lets you engage your tech-toed boot to smoothly skin uphill. With a weight of 865 grams per binding, the Shift is a remarkable advance in both skiing and touring performance relative to frame AT bindings, and a very viable choice for those who want to ski lift-served terrain and true backcountry on a single setup.

Toe

Dual Mode Toepiece– MNC (Multi-Norm Certified) for skiing, including WTR soles. Converts to a tech toe for touring (requires a boot with tech toe fittings).

XL Wings– Long wings for a great envelopment of the boots.

Toe Height Adjustable– Adjustable toe height to let you switch between different boot norms.

Lateral Elasticity– 47mm

Easy Step-In– Less effort needed to step-in and out of bindings.

Sliding Toe Pedal

Heel

Freeski Brakes– Self retracting brakes adapted to modern skis and practices. Eliminates hang ups on switch landings.

Tour Mode

Hike and Ride Switch– A switch lever to shift between hike and ski mode.

Accessing Toe for Touring– 1. Pull back on block between toe wings to open tech arms. 2. Depress front lever to widen arms to step in. 3. Pull up on lever to lock arms securely for skinning.

Preparing Heel for Touring– Pull back on the brake pad and fix the brake in the “up” position by stepping down on the pad.

Climbing Aids– 2° & 10°

Boot Compatibility

Multi Norm Compatibile (MNC)– Compatible with all adult boot sole types, including ISO 5355 Alpine, ISO 9523 Touring, WTR (Walk to Ride) and GripWalk.

Tech Toe Fittings Required For Use In Uphill (Touring) Mode

Requires Boot with Full Heel and Toe Lugs– Not compatible with boots like the Dynafit Hoji and TLT, Atomic Backland, Salomon X-Alp and Arc’teryx Procline, among others. These boots have shortened or non-existent lugs and will not fit into the Shift in downhill mode.

Additional Features

Low Profile Chassis– Low stand height for increased terrain feedback and enhanced power transmission.

Oversized Platform– Super wide platform enabling high transfer of energy, even on wide skis.

Elastic Travel– Ultimate elastic travel to hold in boots during impact in order to go bigger with no risk of pre-release.

Carbon-Infused PA Construction

Adjustment Range– 30mm

Height– 30mm

Compatible with Salomon S/LAB Shift Crampons

Ski Compatibility

We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Type: Tech
Length: Any
Ability Level: Advanced-Expert Advanced-ExpertWhether 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.
