Expert Reviews of the Marker Griffon 13 ID Ski Bindings
Ryan DiFloures This is the binding I have had on most of my skis for the past six years. There has never been a time when I am scared that this binding is not going to perform how it’s made to do. This binding is pretty much great for any discipline of downhill skiing, ranging from ripping through the park, dropping cliffs, or carving groomers. On any given day I take this binding through the park on one run, and then the next run I’m up ripping huge lines at the top of the mountain. The DIN range in this binding will pretty much suit any teen to adult. I will definitely continue to ride this binding in the future.
