Fritschi Ski Touring Bindings – Swiss Precision for Over 75 Years
Fritschi is a true Swiss institution when it comes to touring bindings. Since the 1940s, the company has been developing and manufacturing its products in Reichenbach in the Bernese Oberland, and this proximity to the mountains is clearly evident in the products. Whether you’re going on leisurely ski tours on the weekend or seeking challenging freeride runs, at Fritschi you’ll find a binding that suits your style. With its Diamir series, the brand has played a major role in shaping the frame binding market and today offers both classic frame bindings and modern pin bindings. In our online shop, you’ll find the latest “ Fritschi ” collection, along with expert advice to help you find the binding that truly matches your skill level and the terrain you’ll be tackling.
Slight uphill, steep downhill
No compromises between ascent and descent
What makes “ Fritschi ” special is the balance between comfort on the ascent and safety on the descent. The Tecton and Vipec series feature a clever toe system that securely holds the ski touring boot in place while allowing for a natural walking sensation during the ascent. For those who prefer to play it safe, there are still the tried-and-true frame bindings like the Freeride Pro, which perform reliably even with a more aggressive riding style and in off-piste terrain. The release settings can be finely adjusted so that both beginners and experienced ski tourers can tailor the binding to their weight and skiing style. In our selection of ski touring bindings, you can see at a glance which “ Fritschi ” model is designed for which purpose.
Good traction on the ascent
