ATK truly works unconventionally. While everywhere else “carbon” equals “light and fragile”, at ATK “carbon” means “bombproof structure” at the lowest weight. Innovation is the key ingredient.

C-RAIDER 12 is a new entry in the “RAIDER” family, meant to close the gap in between R12 and CREST 10, both in terms of performance and market placement. Thanks to the innovative “carbon” toe piece a new standard in weight (305 only!!) has been set, super good performance (very similar to the R12) thus expanding and integrating ATK offer dedicated to free touring and allround enthusiasts. The heel part is the same than RAIDER 12 ( 5-12 release): The vertical release is performed by the Cam Release System® that provides an incredible boot retention, a soft heel step-in and the most stable downhill performances on the market; in the event of a big compression the Elastic Response System® allows a natural flex of the ski thanks to an elastic travel (12 mm). The Rear Ski Brake® provides a great braking action with an astonishing ease of use and lightness. The Magneto Heel Flap System® provide a coverage of the different ascent degrees thanks to its 5 walking modes. The fully-adjustable FREERIDE SPACER AL09 is available as an OPTIONAL

New “Carbon” toe piece
The new toe piece, made out with 30% carbon reinforced composite, represents a considerable news for ATK: the material performance (weight/stiffness ratio) and the innovative structural design, leaded to a weight reduction (compared to the R12 toe piece, still with more simple locking system ), boosting performances and stability
at their maximum (compared to the speed touring toe pieces range, still considering around 10gr more in weight).

CREST 10 establishes its reputation as the most versatile binding in ATK® Touring category: its lightweight allows long excursions and steep climbs, while the unique technical features of the heel
part extend its use to the most extreme descents!
