Alpine heel piece plus tech toe piece with lateral release – that's what the Tecton is all about. With side release at the toe, it can add a very stable heel piece that doesn't rotate and lose efficiency or power. It uses the same toe piece as the Fritschi Vipec EVO (easy, intuitive clip in, and smooth release when falling forward) but pairs it with a heel piece designed for boots with Tech fittings. Power Rails locks your boot in place by filling the space associated with heel tech fittings. Transitions from touring to skiing and back are fast and can be done without stepping out of your bindings.
