The bindings construction allows for significantly improved transfer. A Teflon gliding AFD keeps the interface between the boot and binding smooth and even. Marker Xcell 12 FDT Bindings: A complete system which ensures optimal flex and grip. Performance is further enhanced through two important features adopted from the Xcell: the toe and heel pieces on the Xcomp are built with high-quality magnesium components, and the triedand- true X-shaped damping mechanism – the XCell piston – absorbs the quick jolts and bumps on rough terrain, promoting a safe and comfortable ride with optimal control. This connection method repositions the interface closer to the boot for optimized power transmission and turn initiation.

With the elimination of the front toe bracket, the toe piece is now screwed directly to the ski, a proven favorite for many World Cup athletes around the world.

With its new single piece toe design, the Xcomp utilizes the proven 3-hole screw pattern from the venerated Comp bindings. All MARKER bindings are equipped with a moveable AFD (anti friction device) leading to a highly precise release almost entirely unhindered by dirt, snow and ice. The new Xcomp delivers uncompromising power transfer while also allowing more forgiveness as the skier navigates the race course. The latest entry from the Bavarian binding specialist draws on the best aspects of its two predecessors, the Race Xcell and Comp. The TC heel’s familiar effective step-in behavior has also been further improved.The new Marker Xcomp 18 and 24 racing binding is set to hit the market during the 2019/20 season. It also offers improved power transfer through the wider connection of the heel rail (NEW: 43 mm). The new construction increases the boot and ski connectivity for a longer period, even in extremely steep terrain, ensuring precise ski guidance until released.

The unique Xcell technology makes it possible to filter out short jolts and keep the ski boot perpetually centered. The toe pieces with magnesium sole holders (on the Xcell 16.0) stand out for the large contact area with the boot sole, top power transfer and impressive shock absorption.An individually adjusted spring reliably regulates the backwards release without any loss of performance Intelligent Backward Release clearly differentiates between forces that occur during a backward twisting fall and moments of force that originate from a movement onto the edge of the ski to enter into curves.All MARKER bindings are equipped with a moveable AFD (anti friction device) leading to a highly precise release almost entirely unhindered by dirt, snow and ice! Individual adjustment of the AFD to the area of application ensures perfect functionality - from racing, for children’s bindings or on ski tours.
