    • NOW PLAYING

    With the sturdy Marker Tour F12 randonee bindings you can spend the morning riding the lifts and the afternoon skinning in the backcountry in search of fresh lines.

    • Switch between downhill and touring mode using the levers located under your boots; lever position eliminates the chance of accidentally switching to touring mode while skiing
    • Switching the levers to touring mode moves the bindings 40mm backward on the ski for a more balanced stepping motion and easier kick turning on steep slopes
    • Marker Tour F12 bindings feature DIN release settings that are adjustable from 4 - 12
    • Compact triple-pivot toes on the bindings provide reliable release during falls
    • Hollow aluminum axles in the heels reduce weight while maximizing torsional stiffness; heels absorb energy to minimize unwanted release
    • Gliding antifriction devices at the toes of the bindings are height adjustable to accommodate randonee and alpine boots
    • Titanium climbing aids flip into 2 positions to raise your heels 7° or 13° and are easily accessed with a ski pole
    • Elastomer padding on the climbing aids reduces the "clack" noise often heard when skinning with randonee bindings
    • Included 110mm brakes fit wide skis and effectively stop runaway skis; brakes can be easily removed if desired
    • Ski crampons (not included) can be attached underfoot to increase climbing performance on icy slopes
    • Mounting configuration requires a 76mm minimum ski width
    • Size small fits boot sole lengths ranging from 265 - 325mm; size large fits boot sole lengths ranging from 305 - 365mm

    Please note: Marker products can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

        Comments about Marker Tour F12 Bindings:

        This was my first pair of BC bindings. Loved them at first, but I broke the forward hinge in tour mode the 2nd week I used them while on tour in Norway. Fortunately I was at the end of my hike. It was then that I noticed how cheaply made the hinge is. Just a thin piece of plastic to hold you in. They are a serious liability in the BC. Do not buy this binding. Most reviews I've read on these say the same thing. Steer Clear!

            The pivot piece that connects the binding to the plate while in AT mode broke REALLY easily. I was shocked at how easily it broke. I just returned these and got the Dynafit TLT Radical FT bindings. Lesson learned: don't cheap out on the back country bindings, because it could ruin your day and potentially leave you in a dangerous situation.

            Comments about Marker Tour F12 Bindings:

            Yesterday I had a knee forward fall as a result of the binding breaking in half along one of the forward plastic arms underfoot while in tour mode.

            In a single season this will be the second pair of Marker Tour F12s I have broken. When a binding makes me ask what happened to my old Naxo's, you know it has a great deal of design flaws.

            I tour/ski about 25-40 hours a week and have never had so many problems until I mounted a pair of Marker Tour F12's. They're too light to handle spring snow as was demonstrated to me yesterday and they wear out in the to piece very easily. Previously this year, both of my bindings were replaced due to the "tour friendly" toe portion developing a vertical rotation due to cheap plastic wear out... I'd lose a ski on every kick turn by their demise.

            Far from a freeride safe binding, far from durable, far from flawless. Stay away from these bindings.

              Comments about Marker Tour F12 Bindings:

              these are my first pair of marker AT bindings and they have surpassed all of my expectations. i use these bindings to get first tracks before the lifts open and also to ski inaccesible terrain that ski lifts do not take you to. having demo a pair of dukes, the f12 tours are much lighter and smoother geting up the hill, not to mention the two pound weight diference. i would reccomend these bingings to any one who wants to ski untouched powder a week after the storm.
