That matters more than marketing: if you ski on a GripWalk boot today and switch to a lighter touring setup next season, you are not buying another binding. The DIN range runs 5–14, which puts the toe and heel squarely in advanced territory — calibrated for skiers from a strong, established intermediate up through a hard-charging advanced rider, with enough hold for aggressive carving and charging variable snow but not a race-room ceiling. The 47 mm of toe elastic travel is the headline here: the toe spring deflects substantially before releasing, which means edge chatter, ruts, and hard landings get absorbed rather than triggering a pre-release. The low-profile toe piece — Salomon's official stack height is 19.6 mm, so you are sitting under 21 mm at the toe — puts your boot closer to the ski, which translates into crisper edge feel and less leverage-robbing height between your foot and the snow. Brake widths come in 90, 100, 115, and 130 mm, so matching the brake to your ski's waist is straightforward: choose the narrowest brake that still clears the waist by a few millimeters, and no wider than about 15 mm over.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis binding is built for the advanced end of the all-mountain crowd — skiers who want sole flexibility without giving up an on-snow feel that reads as direct and connected. The multinorm toe uses a manual height adjustment — unlike the auto-adjusting toe on the GripWalk-only Strive 14 GW — so when you swap between boot types you set the toe height by hand. It takes about thirty seconds, but it is worth knowing before you pull up to the boot room in a hurry. Who should not buy it: if your DIN setting runs higher than 14 — think heavy, expert, or genuinely aggressive skiers flirting with DIN 13–15 — step up to the Strive 16 MN (DIN 7–16), which adds a metal heel piece and a higher ceiling. Conversely, if your setting sits at DIN 4 or below — lighter skiers and newer intermediates — the DIN 5 floor means this binding cannot release correctly in a fall, and you want a lower-DIN binding such as the Strive 12 GW (DIN 4–12, if you do not need touring-sole compatibility) or another DIN 4–12 alpine binding, set by a technician. One caveat on that down-step: the Strive 12 is GripWalk and Alpine only, so it gives up the ISO 9523 touring compatibility that defines this Multinorm model. And if you have zero interest in touring soles and want to shave about 15 grams per binding, the Strive 14 GW does the same job for pure Alpine and GripWalk boots at 980 g versus 995 g.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDIN\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5-14\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e995g per binding\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eStand Height\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e19.6mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrake Widths\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90, 100, 115, 130mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSole Compatibility\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAlpine + GripWalk + Touring (Multinorm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eConstruction\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGlass-Fiber PA + 3-part metal Arch heel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBest For\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAdvanced-Expert — triple-norm for resort + touring\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Strive","offers":[{"title":"Black\/Slvr \/ 100","offer_id":51007128928551,"sku":"L4736800020","price":239.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black\/Slvr \/ 115","offer_id":51007128961319,"sku":"L4736800025","price":239.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/7177\/0663\/files\/3.webp?v=1753805508"},{"product_id":"strive-16-multinorm-1","title":"Salomon Strive 16 Multinorm","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Salomon Strive 16 MN is a high-DIN all-mountain binding for advanced to expert skiers who ski hard and need their gear to hold up. The DIN range runs 7-16, which means it releases at the forces generated by powerful, heavier, or aggressive skiers — and retains under the same. The toe uses Salomon's low-profile LDN design to drop the stand height to roughly 19.5 mm, keeping you closer to the ski for more direct snow feel without the dead-platform sensation you get on taller binding stacks. The heel is a three-piece wide-metal construction with roughly 45-47 mm of elastic travel (the exact figure varies by listing) — meaningful retention and shock absorption when you're charging rough snow or landing off-piste drops. The MN (MultiNorm) certification is the real differentiator from the standard GW version: this binding accepts Alpine ISO 5355, GripWalk ISO 23223, and Alpine Touring ISO 9523 soles, so it works with traditional race boots, walk-mode freeride boots, and light touring boots alike. Brakes come in 90 mm, 100 mm, 115 mm, and 130 mm — match the brake to within about 15 mm of your ski's waist width.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis binding is squarely for advanced and expert skiers who either need the MN sole versatility or ski at settings in the 10-16 range. The DIN floor of 7 is worth flagging: lighter skiers, beginners, or anyone whose correct DIN falls below 7 should not be on this binding — at that setting the toe may not release cleanly in a real fall, which is a safety issue, not a comfort one. If your calculated DIN lands in the 4-10 range, the Salomon Strive 14 MN or even the Strive 10 is a better and safer fit. Likewise, if you ski only standard Alpine boots and don't need MN compatibility, the GripWalk Strive 16 GW version saves some cost on the same core platform. The 90 mm brake covers narrower carving skis, and the 130 mm is the widest in the lineup, so it'll reach across the vast majority of all-mountain and freeride waists — only true powder skis wider than about 130 mm would push past this binding's brake range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDIN\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7-16\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1,125g per binding\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eStand Height\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e19.6mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrake Widths\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90, 100, 115mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSole Compatibility\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAlpine + GripWalk + Touring (Multinorm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eConstruction\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGlass-Fiber PA + steel, 3-part metal heel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBest For\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExpert — maximum DIN 16 with triple-norm versatility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Strive","offers":[{"title":"White \/ Fiery Red \/ 100","offer_id":51007126667559,"sku":"L4757270020","price":319.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White \/ Fiery Red \/ 115","offer_id":51007126700327,"sku":"L4757270025","price":319.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/7177\/0663\/files\/5.png?v=1753972549"},{"product_id":"strive-12-gripwalk","title":"Salomon Strive 12 GripWalk","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Salomon Strive 12 GW is a low-profile all-mountain binding built on Salomon's LDN toe platform — Low, Direct, Neutral — an extra-wide flat toe pedal (\u0026gt;60mm) that sits the binding low and keeps your foot closer to the ski for more direct snow feel than a taller stack. The DIN range runs 4–12, which calibrates it for skiers in roughly the 49–120kg range at intermediate-to-advanced aggression. Underfoot it pairs a wide 72mm AFD pad with an extra-wide three-part heel, and Salomon's Automatic Wing and Toe adjustment self-adapts to your boot's width and height so release values hold steady even as a boot toe wears. The headline number is 47mm of elasticity — that's the travel that lets the binding stay locked on hard landings and rough snow instead of triggering a false release, which is the spec you actually care about in a fixed all-mountain binding. Boot sole compatibility covers standard Alpine (ISO 5355) and GripWalk (ISO 23223) soles — that GW in the name is not a marketing tag, it's a real spec if you own GripWalk-soled boots, but note it does not cover multinorm (MNC) or touring soles. Brakes come in 90mm, 100mm, and 115mm; match the brake to your ski's waist, targeting one that clears the waist by no more than 10–15mm. Weight is about 920g per binding (1840g a pair) — light for a non-touring all-mountain piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis binding suits an intermediate to advancing all-mountain skier — someone working varied groomers, moving into steeper blues and moderate blacks, who wants a responsive low-stack feel without paying for (or stressing) a race-derived platform. It is not a beginner binding and it is not for heavy chargers: if you're a heavier, faster, or more aggressive skier who tends to max out DIN or regularly skis consequential terrain, the DIN 12 ceiling is a real constraint — look at the Strive 14 GW (DIN 5–14), or the Strive 16 Multinorm (DIN 7–16) if you also need touring-sole compatibility. On the brake side, if your ski's waist is under 85mm the 90mm brake is the only one that fits without dragging or flopping, so confirm brake clearance against your exact ski before you order. And this is an alpine-only binding: no pin inserts, no tech compatibility, so it will not work with AT boots in any touring mode — if you want to tour, this is the wrong tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDIN\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4-12\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e~920g per binding\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eStand Height\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e19.6mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBrake Widths\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90, 100, 115mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSole Compatibility\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAlpine + GripWalk\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eConstruction\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGlass-Fiber PA, LDN ultra-low-profile toe, 47mm elastic travel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBest For\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIntermediate-Advanced all-mountain\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Strive","offers":[{"title":"White\/Black \/ 90","offer_id":51007124275495,"sku":"L4785000015","price":191.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White\/Black \/ 100","offer_id":51007124308263,"sku":"L4785000020","price":191.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Cosmic Sky \/ Black \/ 90","offer_id":51007124341031,"sku":"L4785020015","price":191.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Cosmic Sky \/ Black \/ 100","offer_id":51007124373799,"sku":"L4785020020","price":191.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/7177\/0663\/files\/L47322700__7b8bea2180fdecdd09906e0759d0434b.png?v=1754148587"}],"url":"https:\/\/933534.myshopify.com\/collections\/strive.oembed","provider":"PTO SKI \u0026 Snowboard","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
