INTRODUCTION
Salomon Systems & Bindings
As the market continues to shift towards systems, Salomon continues to offer different constructions for
different skier types.
The ITF system, on page 17, offers skiers two performance enhancing options: the ITF FAST for hard snow,
“frontside”, and carving as well as the ITF FREE for the mixed snow conditions of “freeride”. Both systems allow
technicians to install the bindings virtually tool free. Slide the toe and heel onto the pre-mounted track, attach
the locking clip to the toe, attach the brake, and the binding is installed, ready to adjust. ITF systems are even
easier to readjust. All of this translates into less back-shop time for everyone.
The Pilot system is a unique performance concept, built around three key elements, Axis, Chassis, and
Transmitters. These three elements are further customized to provide technical solutions for specific needs:
going off-road in soft snow or skiing groomed slopes with power and control. All Pilot systems feature premounted
and pre-drilled plates for quick, jig-free binding installation.
Driver bindings are for skiers looking for performance and security. Long toe wings provide great leverage and
micro-adjustable features allow the most precise adjustment of binding to boot. The Quadrax binding concept is
used on our Sport toe piece and offers a lighter weight system with controlled vertical release and self-adjusting
settings, making life easy for the technician in the shop.
Spheric Technology
90% of Salomon’s systems and most Salomon bindings offer Spheric Technology, providing skiers of all abilities
with a binding developed to help reduce the risk of certain knee injuries. Both Spheric and Spheric Oversize
protection is available on all binding levels for adult and junior, including rental.
Poweraxe Race GS & SL Plates
Both models of Poweraxe race plates are factory precision pre-drilled and pre-mounted to save valuable time on
binding installations. The Poweraxe Race SL is now available in one size only. Please refer to page 17 for information
on Salomon’s newest race-proven interface, the ZZ LAB.
Salomon Synchro & e 2 Rental Systems
The SES system introduced last year has evolved into the more versatile e 2 , Easy Enduro, system. The boot is
now compatible with alpine touring bindings. Salomon’s e 2 system is also compatible with other e 2 systems on
the market, but it is not compatible with the old SES system. All existing SES systems must be converted to e 2 ,
(see page 41).
Salomon Synchro Rental & Demo Systems represent the state of the art in rental speed and efficiency. A
common mm scale is now employed on all Pilot and SC systems, color-coded to aid readability, (see page 36).
In addition, SC bindings provide 122 mm of adjustment, tool-free length adjustment, and no more central link to
interfere with bar codes.
New Salomon Junior Binding
The new Salomon C607 junior, on page 10, accommodates adult norm boot soles and offers a 2 to 7 DIN scale. This
new intermediate binding for 5 to 10-year-olds features shorter 6 mm screws for use on junior skis as short as 120 cm.
