For the “3 pinners” out there looking to rip up their local resort or do some light touring, the Vice from 22 Designs is an extremely solid 75mm option, which will cover almost all of your telemark binding needs. The design is metal in all the areas you’d want it to be with a 2000 lb test cable, so it’s super durable and the toe platform is comfy without the slot other bindings have that’s prone to snow and ice buildup.
The chrome spring has an ample 2” of travel, and they come in both large and small sizes to accommodate a wide range of skiers. They provide smooth action, but you can still really edge your skis well, even with stiffer skis.
The Vice comes with three pivot point options to allow you to set them to your specific skiing style, and they are moved a bit back to provide more resistance. Overall it’s a burly, simple binding that has everything you need and nothing you don’t for all-mountain tele charging.
Things we like:
-
Durable stainless-steel toe piece -
Chrome die spring with 2” of travel

Mounting pattern with six holes for secure binding mount
-
Aggressive three degree backwards angle
Things we don't like:
-
We’d like to see the heel throw be made of metal instead of plastic
- Boot Compatibility: 75mm Telemark Boots
- Weight: 760 grams
- Price: $319.95
