ATK Crest 10 Binding Features:

Toe Piece:

• Easy Entry System: This system is characterised by a new design of the toe piece. Its innovative geometries allows a smooth step-in, safe and easy to perform on all the latest boots models. Effective even if the soles are worn.

Heel Piece:

• Cam Release System: a signature patented system that contributes to an effortless step-in and grants amazing torsional stiffness.
• AP Brake System: The new ATK patented system: simply press the pedal and rotate the heel piece to lock the ski brake. Activated by a simple move, this mechanism guarantees a safe use while improving the level of automatism of the bindings.
• Elastic Response System: When under stress skis flex and compress. Under these circumstances, thanks to ELASTIC RESPONSE SYSTEM®, the heel piece can slide towards the tail and repositions itself once normal conditions are restored.
• Magneto Heel Flap System: As ingenious as simple, this magnet system provides the handling and stabilization of the heel flaps. There are different versions of the heel flaps, each one paired with the right binding model.
• Snow Pack Proof System: No snow debris under the toe part, even with several up-hill/downhill transitions. This also avoids snow loads on the toe piece, granting a perfect lightness at any moment.

How do you ship?
All the orders are shipped with Canada Post. We use their Expedited service which offers a tracking number and $100 insurance. Depending on your location, you can expect you parcel do take between 2 to 8 business days to get to you once shipped. Here's a rough estimate: 

• Alberta and British-Columbia: 2-3 business days
• Sasakatchewan-Manitoba: 3-4 business days
• Ontario and Quebec: 6-8 business days
• Maritimes: 7-9 business days

If you are ordering from the USA, you can expect between 7 and 15 business days before you see your order. That is because sometimes, the duty clearance takes time to process.
