Marker ski bindings: how to choose
To choose the right Marker bindings, there are three key criteria to consider: your ability level and build, which determine the required DIN setting range; the width of your skis, which dictates the correct ski brake size; and the type of boot sole you use (Alpine, GripWalk or touring).
Squire 10 and Squire 11: versatile Marker bindings
The Squire 11 is one of Marker’s most popular bindings. With a DIN range of 3 to 11, it is suitable for intermediate to advanced skiers looking for a reliable, responsive binding for both piste and all-mountain skiing. It accommodates boots with Alpine and GripWalk soles and is available with ski brakes ranging from 90 to 120 mm. Adjustable from DIN 3 to 10, the Squire 10 is aimed more at beginner to intermediate skiers seeking a straightforward, confidence-inspiring binding.
Griffon 13 and Griffon X 13: for advanced skiers
The Marker Griffon 13 binding is a benchmark for advanced all-mountain and freeride skiers. Its DIN range of 4 to 13 covers the requirements of the vast majority of accomplished skiers, and it is compatible with boots featuring Alpine, GripWalk and touring soles.
New for the season, the Griffon X 13 offers the same DIN range of 4 to 13 in a lighter, more responsive design. Its low 14 mm stack height places the boot closer to the ski for more direct feedback and rapid edge-to-edge transitions, whether you are skiing all-mountain, freeride or park. It is compatible with Alpine and GripWalk boots and comes with 90, 105 or 120 mm ski brakes.
Jester 16: a hard-charging freeride binding
For expert skiers and riders who place heavy demands on their equipment, the Jester 16 provides a DIN range of 6 to 16. Its magnesium components combine low weight with excellent durability, while the Sole I.D. system makes it compatible with Alpine, GripWalk and touring soles. It is the ideal binding for high-speed freeride and freestyle skiing.
Marker bindings for children
Marker also offers bindings designed for younger skiers. Adjustable from DIN 0.8 to 4.5, the Marker 4.5 is suitable for lightweight children who are learning to ski. The Marker 7.0 and Free 7, with a DIN range of 2 to 7, are designed for progressing junior skiers. Some Marker bindings, including the Vmotion and FDT ranges, are system bindings: they can only be fitted to skis equipped with a compatible mounting plate, so make sure you check compatibility with your skis.
What ski brake width should you choose?
The ski brake must match the width of your ski at the waist, directly beneath the boot. Choose a brake that is the same width as, or slightly wider than, the ski waist. If it is too narrow, it will not deploy correctly on either side of the ski; if it is too wide, it may catch in the snow during deep turns. For example, a 90 mm brake is suitable for skis measuring up to 90 mm underfoot. Depending on the model, Marker bindings are available with brake widths ranging from 70 to 120 mm.
Marker bindings for ski touring and freeride touring
Marker also offers bindings developed for ski touring and freeride touring, ranging from lightweight pin bindings for long ascents to hybrid models that retain the downhill performance of an alpine binding. You can find all these models in our Marker ski touring bindings department.
How to adjust Marker ski bindings
Binding adjustment is carried out in two stages: setting the binding to the boot length, followed by adjusting the release value (DIN).
Adjusting the binding to the boot: locate the boot sole length, stated in millimetres and moulded into the side of the shell, usually near the heel. Slide the toe of the boot into the toe piece without clicking it in, then move the heel piece forwards or backwards using the dedicated lever or screwdriver adjustment until it meets the heel of the boot. Next, step into the binding: a forward-pressure indicator on the side of the heel piece allows you to check that the adjustment is correct. If it is not within the specified range, fine-tune the setting.
Setting the DIN value: the correct release value depends on your weight, height, age, skiing ability and boot sole length. You can estimate yours using our DIN setting chart. The release setting is a critical safety factor and must be adjusted and checked in-store by a qualified technician using calibrated test equipment compliant with the ISO 11088 standard.
