Movable bindings have grown greatly in popularity and are widely adopted on most cross country skis. The development of Turnamic bindings emerged as a response to the evolving needs of cross-country skiers.
Why to adjust bindings: Adjusting the binding position allows for personalized performance optimization. By sliding the binding forward or backward on the ski, skiers can fine-tune the balance between grip and glide. Moving the binding forward enhances grip, providing more traction during uphill climbs or challenging terrain. Conversely, moving the binding backward promotes better glide, allowing for smoother and faster skiing on flatter or downhill sections.
