Who would love these
The Tyrolia AM 12 is a budget-friendly, all-mountain binding for intermediate and advanced skiers looking for a fully-featured binding that doesn't destroy their wallet. They are a great option for skiers who don't need the most expensive binding, but still want the same level of retention quality.
Why I recommend these
Expert verdict
Tyrolia built the AM to be a more price-conscious binding that doesn't skimp on any safety features. The "AM" in the title stands for "all-mountain," and the AMs offer big performance all over the mountain, with a smaller hit to the wallet. These bindings are great for anyone from larger beginners who need a slightly higher DIN than entry-level bindings, all the way to advanced skiers who want a safe and dependable binding, but aren't drawn to the super high-end options.
The AM is compatible with both GripWalk and Alpine soles, and its DIN range of 3.5 to 12 means it caters to a wide range of skill levels. For hard-charging skiers, the 12 DIN may prove a bit low, and Tyrolia's use of plastic in the heel might leave truly aggressive skiers wanting. While the AMs may be a bit overkill for lighter, newer skiers, they are a quality, budget-friendly option for skiers wanting an all-mountain capable binding.
