Description
Introducing the G3 Targa Ascent: telemark's lightest,
high performance touring binding.
The Targa
Ascent combines the award winning, lightweight Targa T/9
with a pole-activated free pivot system, easily
switching the binding from tour to ski mode.
In tour mode, the Ascent toe plate pivots unrestricted
on a stainless steel axle, eliminating the burden of
boot flex resistance. Biomechanically engineered for a
natural feel and efficient stride, the Ascent's pivot
point is located 7mm forward of the 'pin-line', quickly
transforming telemarkers to trailbreakers.
A flick of the switch: easily converts the Ascent into
an aggressive high performance binding. A stainless
steel sliding retainer moves into place above a forged
stainless steel retention bar, securing the Ascent into
ski mode. The 3° wedge and 40mm rise further enhances
the skiing performance over and above its T/9
predecessor, eliminating rocker launch and engaging the
powerful G3 compression spring cartridges for
outstanding downhill control.
For further touring convenience, the TARGA Ascent also
includes a new, pole activated, elastomer-spring
climbing heel, providing 70mm of rise and a very clean
design.
Accessories for the Targa Ascent include Climbing Wires
and Ski Crampons.
Available with All-Mountain Cartridges.
