Power Width Design
Wide brackets connect to the ski directly where the power needs to be transferred as opposed to `torsion bar` designs which ruin the ski`s flex.
Triple Pivot Elite Toe System
This new toe construction delivers superior holding power for free riding. The Triple Pivot Elite toe comes with a cross-axis toe spring, 5 degree sole holder angle, featuring a high energy absorption to prevent pre-release. The wide contact zone optimizes power transfer and allows extreme demands.
Stainless Steel Gliding AFD Plate
Unlike inexpensive plastic or Teflon AFDs, the performance of Marker`s exclusive Integrated Stainless Steel AFD is virtually unaffected by dirty or worn boot soles, negative sliding friction, outdoor temperature variations, combined load forward and backward twisting falls, or the skier`s downward weight on the AFD. Junior models feature a unique fully active AFD.
Inter-Pivot Heel
The new heel construction delivers superior holding power for free riding. The Inter Pivot Heel directs the power forces in the angle of elasticity improving the holding power and reducing pre-releases.
EPS System
The Marker EPS (Edge Pressure System) optimizes pressure directly to the ski`s edge, maximizing ski control and edge, and improving carving by providing constant power transmission.
