Types of Telemark Bindings

Telemark bindings are a crucial part of the Telemark sport, providing the connection between boot and ski and enabling the characteristic Telemark movement. There are three main types of binding: cable bindings, spring bindings and NTN (New Telemark Norm) bindings. Cable bindings are the most traditional, offering great freedom of movement and a fluid skiing sensation. Spring bindings, or cartridge bindings, offer better control and faster response, ideal for skiers looking for more downhill performance. NTN bindings, meanwhile, represent the latest generation of Telemark bindings, offering a stiffer binding, better power transmission and often secure release options.

Selection Criteria for Telemark Bindings

The choice of Telemark bindings depends on several essential criteria to guarantee safety and performance. Firstly, the level of stiffness and flexibility should be adapted to your skiing style. Softer bindings are ideal for beginners and those with an upward orientation, while rigid models offer better downhill performance for advanced skiers. Compatibility with your boots is also crucial: make sure your telemark boots are compatible with your choices. Ease of adjustment is another important aspect if you plan to make frequent modifications according to your style or snow conditions. Last but not least, choose durable materials that guarantee longevity and safety.

Adapting bindings to your level and needs

It's essential to choose telemark skis that suit your level and your specific needs. For beginners, cable bindings are often preferred for their ease of use. Intermediate skiers will benefit from spring-loaded models that balance flexibility and control on various terrains. For experts looking for maximum performance in downhill or technical touring, opt for NTN fixed, which guarantee superior rigidity and optimal transmission. In short, your choice should reflect your level of practice and your objectives, in order to optimize comfort and performance.
