SL Brake World Cup Lightweight - ATK The SL Brake World Cup Lightweight is the latest iteration of ATK’s race bindings that have been refined and improved every winter since their initial appearance in 2011. Weighing only 130 g per ski, the SL Brake World Cup Lightweight is packed with ATK's innovative design solutions and comes complete with ATK's new race brakes, weighing only 20 g per ski.
The toe baseplate does not have a ski crampon slot (this is available as an option) but does have screw holes to attach these. The SL Brake World Cup Lightweight toe piece uses their unique Monolink Technology 1.0. Only one of the toe piece arms has springs, and this design provides a higher clamping pressure on the boot while also saving weight. ATK had to source a new aeronautical steel alloy with an extreme elastic modulus in order to create the Monolink Technology 1.0 bindings with just two springs, saving 2.5 g per toe unit. The higher stiffness provides higher precision release while reducing the pressure on the locking system.
The heel units of race bindings using “U” springs suffer from increased wear compared to the separate pins used in heavier bindings, where the ability to rotate as the boot heel engages reduces wear and tear. To save weight all ATK “U” springs are made of titanium, which is incredibly light but is less resistant to wear and tear than are steel springs. ATK have developed the Rolling IN System with two small hardened steel roller bushings only 0.4 mm thick at the pin extremities, to protect the titanium from wear and tear. The Rolling IN System offers several advantages. As well as eliminating wear on the pins, the rolling action of the bushings provides easier step-in and more precise vertical release.
The heel cover flips forward to cover the "U" spring in walk mode. It’s possible to adjust the stiffness needed to flip the heel cover for user preference and to ensure reliable service for many years.
The SL Brake World Cup Lightweight is designed, as the name suggests, for lighter skiers and is supplied with “U” springs that both side release (Mz) and vertical release ( My) resistance fixed at 6. These settings have been chosen by ATK athletes to offer the best balance between safety and stability.
ATK recommend the SL Brake World Cup Lightweight for skis 60-82 mm at the waist and weighing up to 800 g per ski. The ATK SL Brake World Cup Lightweight is an excellent race binding, easy to use and combining minimal weight with increased durability.
