Marker GRIFFON X 13 Ski Bindings

The Marker GRIFFON X 13 ski bindings are designed for a unisex audience of advanced to expert skiers looking for versatile alpine ski bindings for challenging skiing on hard snow as well as freeriding. They combine power transfer with multi-standard compatibility to support a variety of mountain adventures. Their DIN adjustment range of 4.0 to 13.0 allows the binding’s performance to be precisely tailored to the skier’s profile. Thanks to a sophisticated technical design, they offer a well-rounded package for demanding skiers who alternate between groomed runs and open terrain.

Versatile alpine ski bindings for advanced to expert skiers

Designed for alpine skiing, the Marker GRIFFON X 13 ski bindings feature a DIN range from 4.0 to 13.0, catering to the needs of advanced to expert skiers seeking a release setting suited to their skiing style and body type. This adjustment range offers significant room for customization to ensure the binding is secure while maintaining dynamic performance on the slopes. Weighing 1,030 g per binding, they strike a balance between durability and maneuverability, making them a solid choice for intensive days on the slopes. The 24 mm height allows for consistent foot positioning, enabling precise ski control while maintaining a sense of contact with the snow.

Multi-standard compatibility for a variety of ski boots

The Marker GRIFFON X 13 ski bindings feature Sole.ID technology, designed to make the bindings compatible with different ski boot sole standards. They are compatible with Alpine soles meeting the ISO 5355 standard, as well as touring-style boots compliant with the ISO 9523 standard, allowing you to use a single pair of bindings with multiple types of boots depending on your planned outings. This multi-standard compatibility offers a tangible advantage to skiers who switch between piste-oriented boots and models more geared toward touring, while maintaining a reliable technical fit. The AFD glide plate plays an important role in managing sole movement, contributing to a smooth and controlled release, regardless of the boot standard used.

Front and heel pieces optimized for power transfer

The Triple Pivot Elite toe piece on the Marker GRIFFON X 13 ski bindings is designed to provide precise support while optimizing the weight-to-power ratio, resulting in better absorption of the energy applied during turns and when applying strong pressure. This design helps reduce unwanted releases by maintaining elasticity suited to the demands of aggressive skiing. At the rear, the Interpivot 3 heel piece ensures efficient power transfer from the skier to the ski, with shock absorption and vertical elasticity engineered to keep the ski locked in while adapting to changes in terrain. This toe piece–heel piece combination provides noticeable comfort when putting on the boot and a consistent grip across the entire ski, particularly during runs involving strong, repeated pressure on the ski.

Snow management and precise release for regular use

The Marker GRIFFON X 13 ski bindings feature an Anti-Ice Rail positioned to help remove snow accumulated under the boot sole, thereby making it easier to put on the boots in winter conditions and improving contact between the sole and the binding. All Marker bindings in this series also feature an AFD plate, an anti-friction device designed to maintain precise release despite varying conditions. For skiers who spend day after day on slushy, powder, or hard-packed snow, this management of friction and snow under the sole contributes to the binding’s overall reliability. Brake widths are available in 90 mm, 105 mm, and 120 mm, allowing the binding to be adapted to different alpine ski widths, catering to everything from groomed runs to wider terrain.

The Marker GRIFFON X 13 ski bindings thus offer a unisex technical solution for intermediate to expert skiers seeking a versatile alpine ski binding that is compatible with multiple standards and designed for efficient power transfer.
