Product Information

Full details

The Salomon S/Lab Shift2 13 Multinorm Ski Bindings are designed for advanced backcountry skiers and resort riders who demand uncompromising downhill performance without sacrificing uphill efficiency. These hybrid bindings provide exceptional lateral stiffness and power transmission for aggressive skiing, though they require a learning curve to master the transition between touring and alpine modes effectively.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use these on any mountain?

Yes, they are designed as a hybrid, performing equally well at the resort and in the backcountry.

Are these bindings compatible with tech boots?

Yes, they are multinorm-certified and work with both traditional alpine and tech-compatible touring boots.

How often should I service these?

It is recommended to have your bindings inspected by a certified technician at the start of every season.

Does the weight affect climbing efficiency?

While slightly heavier than pure race-touring bindings, the efficiency gained through better power transfer on the descent makes them a preferred choice for many advanced skiers.

Are there different brake sizes available?

Yes, the S/Lab Shift2 13 is typically available in various brake widths (e.g., 90mm, 110mm) to accommodate different ski waist widths.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty engaging pins during transition to tour mode

Ensure all snow and ice are cleared from the toe lug of your boot and the binding mechanism itself.

Binding does not lock into downhill mode

Check that the toe lever is pushed completely down and the sliding toe pedal is not obstructed by debris.

Pre-release while skiing

Have a certified technician verify that your forward pressure and DIN settings are correctly adjusted for your specific boot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly increased lateral stiffness over previous iterations
  • Full DIN-certified safety for reliable release in alpine mode
  • Excellent power transmission comparable to traditional alpine bindings
  • Lightweight design suitable for long backcountry tours
  • High level of elastic travel provides a damp, responsive ride

Cons

  • Transitioning between modes can be finicky in deep snow or ice
  • Requires careful adjustment to ensure boot compatibility
  • Heel elevator mechanism may feel less robust than pure-alpine dedicated systems

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper setup is critical for safety and performance. Always ensure the binding's DIN settings are professionally calibrated to your specific boot sole length and release requirements.

  • Compatibility: These are compatible with all ISO-normed boots (Alpine, Touring, and Walk-to-Ride). Always verify the boot/binding fit in a shop.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check the toe and heel pins for debris, snow, or ice buildup. Use a soft brush to clear the mechanics after touring to prevent freezing.
  • Storage: When storing skis for the season, it is recommended to keep the bindings in a neutral position to maintain spring tension health.
