Lightweight Touring Binding Shootout
We’ve now covered several of the most interesting lightweight touring bindings for 18/19 (including the new G3 ZED), and now we’re comparing them to show where, exactly, each binding stands out, which one might make the most sense for you, and how this lightweight category of bindings compares to heavier touring bindings like the Salomon / Atomic Shift, Marker Kingpin, and Fritschi Tecton.
2020-2021 G3 ZED 12
The new ZED 12 binding is very impressive on paper. But on snow, how does it compare to the other lightweight touring bindings on the market? Check out our review.

2018-2019 Black Crows Orb
If you want your ~90mm-wide ski to perform well even when there isn’t fresh corduroy anywhere in sight, the Black Crows Orb is worth a look. Check out our full review.
Petzl Boreo Helmet
Climbing helmet standards have typically been focused on protecting against impacts from above (e.g. rockfall). But Petzl’s new Boreo helmet is also tested against the front, side, and rear impacts that are common in actual falls. The idea certainly makes sense, but how well is that idea executed here? Check out our review.
Mammut Ultralight Removable Airbag 3.0
Avalanche airbags can provide significant safety benefits, but they can also be prohibitively expensive or discouragingly heavy. But the Mammut Ultralight Removable Airbag 3.0 is one of the lightest and one of the least expensive airbag packs on the market, so is the problem finally solved?

Stio Ralston Canvas Jacket
The Stio Ralston Canvas Jacket. Good for baling hay, building railroads, and a bunch of other less cool stuff, too. And it's more comfortable than stiff, heavy canvas jackets of the past.
2019-2020 ATK Raider 2.0 12 / Hagan Core 12
The ATK Raider 2.0 12 / Hagan Core 12 manages to be the most fully-featured binding in our Lightweight Touring Binding Shootout without being the heaviest. And it has an all-metal construction. Intrigued? You should be.
