The Curated Take

By the Expert Community

Ideal for resort skiers looking to go out of bounds or enjoy some uphill travel. Here Salomon delivers top downhill performance with great and easy uphill mode. This is a fully certified downhill binding as good as you will find on any set of skis, yet you can easily transition to use it uphill or for touring purposes.

Ideal for
  • Outstanding uphill and downhill performance
  • Great for anyone with a DIN setting over 7
  • Skiers north of 180 lbs that often need a 13 DIN binding
Not ideal for
  • There are lighter touring bindings, but not with the same downhill capability

The Salomon S/Lab Shift MNC 13 Ski Bindings are the perfect choice for skiers who want to take their freeride capabilities to the next level. These bindings combine the touring efficiency of a pin (low-tech) binding with the performance of an alpine freeride binding, making them a truly compromise-free option. With these bindings, you can push your skiing and explore new boundaries on the mountain.

Key Features:

  • Revolutionary Design: Game-changer in ski binding design. It offers unprecedented versatility and performance, making it ideal for skiers who demand nothing but the best.
  • Touring Efficiency: Thanks to its low-tech pin design, this binding is incredibly efficient when touring uphill. You'll be able to conserve energy and enjoy longer tours without feeling weighed down.
  • Alpine Performance: When it's time to descend, these bindings offer exceptional power transfer and control. You'll be able to carve turns with precision and confidence, even in challenging terrain.
  • Multi-Norm Certified (MNC): Compatible with all boot sole norms - DIN, Touring and Walk To Ride (WTR) - without requiring any adjustment whatsoever.
  • Lightweight Construction: Despite its advanced features and capabilities, this binding is surprisingly lightweight. You won't feel weighed down or fatigued during long days on the mountain.

My girlfriend and I recently tried out the Salmon Shift MNC 13 bindings on her Elan Ripsticks 102 skis and we were both really impressed with their performance. The power transfer was excellent, allowing her to really lean into her turns and feel confident on the mountain. One of the standout features of these bindings was their ability to handle steep,...

Look, does the Salomon shift have issues? yes. Does the Salomon shift have the best performance to $ ratio? absolutely yes. When this Binding hit the market in 2018, it changed the game for in bound skiers that wanted to adventure away from the resort. Not long after, issues started to arise, mostly with the AFD plate (anti friction device);... Read more

Frozen toe piece in Powder

Originally posted at www.salomon.com on Jun 30, 2023
I sold my S/Lab bindings last December. They were an early model. I see many Reviews citing toe piece malfunction in walk mode, but, my problem was with skiing in powder. The Powder entered the toe piece, froze, and it was "impossible" to release the toe. No amount of pressure on the toe release would budge the mechanism. Have (April 2023) had a knee replacement as a result. I don't know if Salomon has fixed this problem?

Important things right

Originally posted at www.salomon.com on Apr 24, 2023
When ski'ing down resort or off-piste steeps, You have to rely on the equipmets. When climbing with skins, You are not in a hurry. So, I think Shift 13, focusing on downhill, is just right! Btw, What position should the bindings levers be, while having them in the garage out of season?

The Best of the Best
5 /5
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kyle and my experience with him on Curated. I’m a pretty hard headed individual and I went into the curation wanting a very specific GNU board. Kyle talked me off that ledge (was far outside my budget) and steered me in the direction of something similar that fit my budget a lot better. I’m stoked about my purchase and am so excited to get out on the slopes! Kyle was knowledgeable without being arrogant, which is extremely hard to find in the skiing industry. I don’t like to feel pressured into purchasing something without doing my research, and there was no point during our multiple day conversation that he made me feel pressured or rushed. He was patient, kind, and friendly in a way that felt above and beyond for the given task. If my rave review doesn’t say enough, Kyle seems like a gem of a human. Wishing him and his family all the best!

Super knowledgeable, great experience, tons of options, no pressure… Leo gets it!
5 /5
Skied a fair bit as a kid in the Northeast, then switched to snowboarding when I moved out west 15 years ago, and just getting back into skiing somewhat seriously as my kids are pretty self-sufficient and competent on most runs these days. We usually rent, but after skiing about 20 days last year, I decided that buying new boots at a minimum was an absolute must. Some days were pure torture… But, I had no idea where to start and was instantly overwhelmed beginning my search on my own. Enter Leo and Curated. Leo took the time to understand my situation, my skill level, my goals, my preferences, etc. In short order, after I sent back my boot measurements, I received a personalized video with several different options and tons of rationale for my expanded search for skis, bindings, and poles as well. I felt very comfortable that I had a good set of options to choose from for each piece of equipment - with an accompanying wealth of Leo’s deep knowledge and experience to consider as I pondered this large, potential purchase. I decided to hold off at that point, and Leo made sure I knew he was available to text or chat live as needed - he is super responsive. No pressure at all. I came back to it later the next day, chatted a bit back and forth with Leo, and felt really confident about making the purchase. That’s really saying something given how little I knew about modern ski gear just a night or two earlier. I highly recommend Leo and will be reaching out to him directly for any future purchases. I won’t hesitate to direct friends and family to him either, and have a hunch my wife will be looking for his help right around the time my new gear hits our doorstep. Thanks, Leo!

Ryan is very knowledgeable about the tech of snowboards and the areas I frequently snowboard at. He helped me understand the fundamentals about snowboards which helped me in my own independent research. He is super patient and responsive. Additionally, he worked with my budget and snowboarding wants/needs.

I have been wanting to get my own gear since I can remember, having borrowed stuff from my dad and buddies as long as I can remember. However, I waited so long because although I have been boarding for a while, I didn’t know any of the terminology or what brands were good, etc. Kim made this process SO easy, and I am more than confident I will like my gear! 10/10 recommend and if I need to get more stuff I know where I am going

Vincent done did it again! Had a friend refer me and boy was it the best decision ever. Vincent was very knowledgeable and definitely catered to my needs. He didn’t send the most expensive bindings and hoped for the best. I told what I was looking for and delivered. Not one or two options but many options. I definitely recommend him as your expert!

I had insomnia that night and found the Curated for the first time. I was curious about contacting an expert who turned out to be Andrew at 4 AM PST. I expected to get an answer a few hours later since it was in the middle of the night. I turned off my computer and went into bed he responded a few minutes later. Hopefully, I didn't wake him up, or maybe he's on EST time but either way, he's on his game.

I had many questions, and after a few days we finally got stuff figured out. Throughout the whole process he was very helpful and knowledgeable which is defiantly better then going to facebook marketplace. I tried that, but the information from an expert just helps much more.
