Salomon Strive 12 Ski Bindings — Low Ride, High Feedback

Hungry for more feel and faster reactions? The Strive 12 drops you closer to your skis with an ultra–low-profile toe, lowering your center of gravity so you feel every ripple of the snow. A generous 47 mm of elasticity keeps you confidently locked in at speed while smoothing out chatter and absorbing hard hits. Add a wide 72 mm AFD for better boot-to-binding contact, and you get crisp power transfer and a connected, predictable ride—lap after lap.

Why you’ll love it

• Sharper snow feel: Low-slung toe puts you closer to the deck for instant feedback and quicker edge engagement.

• Security at speed: 47 mm elastic travel helps maintain retention through bumps and vibrations, then releases when it should.

• Power you can trust: 72 mm wide AFD pad boosts contact area for stable, efficient energy transfer from boot to ski.

• Seamless ski connection: Low center of gravity = enhanced sensitivity, quicker reactions, and confident control.
