Alpine Touring

Alpine Touring (AT) is a skiing style that allows skiers to ascend mountainous terrain using specialized equipment, then ski down. It combines lightweight bindings and boots with adjustable mechanisms called "touring" or "mobile" modes that free the heel for uphill movement. When descending, the bindings lock into a fixed position for controlled skiing. This setup enables skiers to access remote, untracked snow areas beyond ski resorts, offering greater versatility and adventure. Alpine Touring is ideal for those seeking a backcountry experience with the ability to climb steep terrains efficiently while still enjoying downhill performance.
