Fritschi eagle 12
Comfort is everything! If you are having just one pair of boots (without inserts) and you would like to do medium long tours the Fritschi eagle is your best binding.The Fritschi eagle is not a freeride binding. It is designed for medium long ski touring and for little piste skiing. The advantage to the Marker Tour is the better pivot point (for easier walking), the better handling of the heel lifter and a little bit less weight than the Marker frame bindings
