These are the newest touring bindings available. They all feature a "free pivot" toepiece that allows us to "skin" uphill with no resistance from the binding, similar to the Alpine Touring bindings. For descent the toepiece locks down for more control. The heel is still free, though. L to R The Black Diamond 01 (Peter K's favorite), the G3 Targa Ascent, the Karhu 7TM (the only releasable binding in the group).
