"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""I’ve tested a ton of hybrid bindings, and the HY 13 Free is hands down the most confidence-inspiring. The all-metal build gives me peace of mind on big descents, and the flat touring mode is a dream when skinning long traverses. Switching modes is simple—even with gloves—and the downhill performance rivals alpine bindings."" We demand more from our gear—more power, more precision, and more reliability—and the ATK HY 13 Free Binding delivers on every front. Built with backcountry chargers in mind, this hybrid binding is crafted from fully machined 7075 aluminum and designed to take a beating while still keeping performance smooth and intuitive. Whether we’re chasing big lines or long traverses, this binding balances uphill efficiency with downhill aggression like few others can. The HY 13’s unique flat touring mode and -18mm heel position are game-changers on mellow approaches, especially with boots that have limited cuff rotation. When terrain gets steep, two riser positions provide tailored comfort. With vertical release in the heel and lateral release in the toe, it delivers consistency akin to an alpine binding. And with 25mm of BSL adjustment and a Crampon Shim included, this setup adapts seamlessly to any mission."
