NORDICA Bindings
Nordica lists more than a dozen bindings, but for consumers it’s worth knowing that:
- Toepieces feature two springs, one for lateral release and one for upward release. That is a good concept because much finer tuning can be done when one spring doesn’t have to be calibrated to do two jobs.
- Many of the bindings are integrated with the ski design to optimize performance without impairing smooth ski flex. X-Balance is Nordica’s technology that incorporates the binding in such a way that fore-aft balance errors are automatically corrected. XBI stands for X Balance Integrated.
- A slick adjustment system called Central Turntable allows quick, one-handed adjustment for different sole lengths. Those binding setups have “CT” in their name.
