Peakers' Comments & Responses

The following is some of the feedback that we have
received from testers and customers.
 

First, I have to say that they have done a great job with the geometry of the plate. It holds the boot very securely and with minimal play. The toe stop does, in fact, serve to reduce boot slop in the binding and increase control while adding minimal weight. The stop also serves to create a consistent, third surface for the boot toe to rest on, increasing power transfer and also making it easy to line up the pinholes each time the boot is inserted. It also will help keep the holes from getting torqued by movement of the boot in the plate.

The Peak Rigs binding is a solid design, executed well. Downhill performance was better than expected from a fairly straight forward traditional design. The toe stop really does work to add control and power. Josh and the Peak Rigs crew deserve a lot of credit for bringing us a sweet and innovative new backcountry oriented binding at a time when many free-heel bindings are getting bigger, and more alpine like.

"This is a very solid lightweight binding with no unnecessary moving parts, that skis fantastic!"
Davey Agnew,Teton Ski Pioneer, Teton Valley, ID

"The bindings skied great! Nice design and very refined look for a new product. I couldn't believe how nice the welds were. I rarely am so comfortable on a binding right away."
Dave Drulard, Salt Lake City, UT

Now I have used my skis with the new bindings during a week of skiing in the Riksgränsen area in the north of Sweden. Three days in the slopes and four days of touring. The bindings have worked well, easy to entry and stable during riding.
Jaan Kirsmaa, Sweden

"The Peak Rig binding continues to impress me…I tried it out w/Chili cables and they make a great match. I have skied Voile 3-pin cables, Superloop, Chilis and G3. The Peak Rigs have matched or surpassed the others in terms of entry and exit and skiing performance."
Mike MacDonald, Breckenridge, CO

"The option of quickly changing from free heel touring mode to heel retention with the cables for downhill is great."
Doug Goldenberg, Medford, OR

They were really easy to mount and the construction seems very good. The boot interface was easy to get in and out of and seems to give a very solid contact area. I like the toe stop bar. I have skied in some snow with high ice-up potential with no problems with the toe plates with the shiny finish. I haven't even needed to try the Peak Slather yet. I really like the solid mounting system for the riser plates. Other skiers that have looked at my Peak Rigs and tried them out have all been impressed with appearance, simplicity, and predict that they will be a durable and fairly light weight setup. I think many tele people want an alternative to the "bigger is better" Linkens and Skyhoys.

"I am Peaking-out right now. I've skied the bindings so hard for the last two weeks. If I were Peaking any more I would probably pass out!"
Bob Wood, Driggs, ID
