Rottefella NTN Freedom Telemark Bindings - 110 mm
The Rottefella NTN Freedom telemark bindings with 110 mm brakes bring the benefits of NTN to a lightweight binding setup that enables you to tour deep into the backcountry for fresh powder.
- At 1,500 g per pair (3 lbs. 5 oz.), the Freedom bindings are comparable to other telemark bindings, yet they have the benefits of a step-in design and releasability
- Step-in design makes the bindings easy to get in and out of—no more bending down to attach heel levers to your boots
- Unlike traditional telemark bindings, NTN bindings are symmetrical so you don't need to worry about which ski is for the left foot and which is for the right
- Sideways release helps prevent injuries during falls
- Free-pivot mode provides resistance-free touring while skinning up hills; flip-up climbing wires reduce fatigue on your legs as you skin up steep hills
- Bindings provide great torsional rigidity for immediate energy transfer from boot to ski edge
- NTN bindings require NTN-compatible boots (not included); such boots do not have the traditional 75 mm duckbill, making walking easier
- Power Tube spring cartridges create consistent resistance as you drop into a turn; Large bindings come with medium-flexing blue Power Tubes installed
- Small bindings come with soft-flexing green Power Tubes installed
- You can install green (soft), blue (medium) and red (stiff) cartridges (not included) for a desired flex
- Rottefella NTN Freedom telemark bindings include 110 mm ski brakes that fit most powder skis
- Large bindings fit Garmont NTN boot sizes 26 mondo and up; fit Scarpa and Crispi NTN boot sizes 26.5 mondo and up
- Small bindings fit Garmont NTN boot sizes 25.5 mondo and down; fit Scarpa and Crispi NTN boot sizes 26 mondo and down

$120 per run
Plastic of the touring tab broke on the forth run of the first day and while flexing the foot. Had to walk the rest of the way. Cheap plastic and poor engineering. I have had three prior bindings, none broke and after 4 decades of telemarking, at 71 yrs old this happens. I wasn’t jumping from helicopters. Expect full refund. Stay away from this product unsafe.
Plastic pieces wear quickly
Worked well and was releasable on a couple falls which was great, but I had the same wear issue as Vince (who post 2 days ago). The plastic wore down after a month of use allowing the shock absorber to slip out.
Not Rottefella's best effort
I was an early adopter of NTN, and was thrilled when Rottefella released the Freedoms, as my Freerides needed to be replaced and the weight reduction in the Freedoms was a strong selling point. However, as other reviewers have pointed out, the bindings are light because they are made out of plastic in places where metal would be much more appropriate. Additionally, the tour/ski mechanism (that pink dongle at the toe of the binding) won't lock into ski mode if there is any snow under it...which there inevitably is after a tour. I ended up pulling these off my skis and replacing them with the much heavier and stronger Freerides. I can't believe that Rottefella is still selling this model with the same problems years later.
Least Durable Binding I have owned
The toe base plate assembly is made of cheap plastic which wears down quickly. The plastic clamshell once worn down can open allowing the shock absorber to fall out. This in turn will make it impossible to out the binding from touring mode to ski mode. My bindings are just out of the 1 year warranty and are bust. Go with a better engineered binding like Bishops.
Fairly solid for skiing in area
I have skied primarily in area for five years on these bindings and have three pairs. If you don't clip in properly due to snow under the foot, it is possible to break the heel box which is plastic. I twist my boot in the binding after I put it on to check. I now have the Medijo binding on my latest pair of tele skis.
