Voile HD Mountaineer 3-pin Binding

Despite the ridiculously-long name, the HD Mountaineer is as simple as a telemark binding can get: A 75mm Nordic Norm toe piece that mounts directly to the the ski and a barebones heel pad. Kind of makes you nostalgic for the good old days, doesn't it?

But wimpy, it ain’t. The toe box is constructed of 5052-H32 aluminum and machined almost identically as Voile's 3-Pin Cable bindings. The three-level toe bail meets exactly the same specs as their other 3-Pin offerings and promises to take a licking and keep on clicking. Obviously, its a binding that is more suited to covering distance than making turns. And it thrives when its snuggled up against the duckbill of a leather boot.
