Yeah, he's definitely not skiing Looks. Not that it seems to be doing much for his results at this point.

It's true Atomic made copy of Marker some 3 years ago, but it's so bad noone in World cup is using it. Everyone are using Marker that are then sent to Atomic/Salomon where they try to make them look like Atomic/Salomon. But it's still real Marker binding not Atomic/Salomon copy of it.

Yeah, that's not true. Almost everyone up to and thru Super-G is on the new Icon binding, with only a few still on the X-binding (mainly older speed skis with Servotec rods). I walk thru the race room on an almost daily basis and I haven't seen a painted Marker binding in about a year. There was a time last year when some athletes were on the new heel with the Marker toe due to parts not being available, but even those days are now over.

I don't walk through race room, but I do spend some time in wax rooms on WC tour, and even though I have nothing to do with Atomic/Salomon, I have friend or two, who is taking care of racers on Atomic/Salomon.

No one in this thread cares about Atomic vs. Marker race bindings on the World Cup. Make a separate thread to discuss and measure your dicks on who has better access to racers skis. Read the room, guys.

Thats what we want to hear.
They look like they have a little more tip taper than a traditional Dynastar design.

Wasatchback - aren't you the Tecnica guy? Any insider info you able to give on the long rumored lighter boot? I have high hopes for this thing since the Zero G is so great and skis so well for its weight.

This is a 22/23 gear thread and this binding is launching for 22/23. It may not be your interest, but it may be for others.
I do think it's helpful to clear the air on what products are being used by athletes and which ones aren't. Perhaps you don't, that's great. But someone posted this and people responded.

yeah, yeah, while you go ski around on your 7 din binding remember that all the big spring development come from these guys hucking their meat down mountainsides at 140kmh. As no one races on the greatest alpine binding of all time, the Pivot, all the brands are striving to come up with something that works. This is where it starts.
Anyone can make a powder ski in their garage, but nobody is making new bindings there.what's orange and looks good on hippies?

You know me so well...
My sarcasm was not coming across well this morning in my comments, but there's some truth, too. I love inside baseball from industry folks as much as the next Mag, though I don't really care about racing. If there's a product that we are going to be able to buy, let's talk about it. We had that with the first photo of the Atomic binding.
While I personally don't care what a particular racer is or is not using in world cup races, I'm glad some here do. If you want to talk about old Marker bindings and who uses them, I'm sure there's some WC threads to have that discussion or, if not, create the thread. You can compare the long distance spy photos there. Compare who has better access and knowledge of who really races with what in that thread. Let's talk about real or speculated new products we may or may not actually see/buy here.

My guess is that with the MagicJ retiring the Whitewalker gets that spot but time will tell if I’m off base.
