Summary - The Roxy is the same binding
as the incredibly popular Targa, with a sparkly blue color
and shorter cables. G3 offers an unbeatable combination
of price, durability, and performance. This is our top
pick for women or those with smaller boots.
G3's four hole mounting pattern is now the "industry standard". The
Roxy provides an excellent combination of uphill and downhill performance in
a simple design that is easy to mount and repair. A flexible cable gives the
skier a natural flex and somewhat neutral feel that many skiers love, especially
in softer snow.You've probably seen these bindings everywhere you've skied, and
they are a solid choice for a reliable binding that feels great under foot.
The color of the Roxy matches nicely with some of the women's specific skis out
there, and the shortened cable allows for use with a smaller boot. |
A truly innovative telemark binding, the
TARGA telemark binding comes standard with features not found
on any other telemark binding - including the new rear tour
throw. The heart of the TARGA's strength lies in the hardened
stainless steel toe plate. Finite element models were used
to optimize the strength-to-weight ratio under worst-case
loading conditions (i.e. your ugliest digger). Large corner
radii and dual stiffening embossments make the TARGA toe
plate the strongest available.

>Adjustable convenience for smaller boot sizes
> Packaged with XMountain cartridges
> Compatible with K2 inserts
> Fits boot sizes:
4.0-10.5 US
35.0-42.0 Euro

Couloir: "The G3 Targa is once again
our pick for Editor's Choice - Proven Performance..Functional
both on the up and the down, they are the benchmark of neutral,
single-pivot performance. Testers liked the smooth forward
flex and were really enthusiastic about Targas in soft snow.
They're easy to install, easy to adjust, and the plastic plate
prevents snow buildup underfoot. Tried and true for most.
The Targa's classic neutral flex engagement requires solid
skills to push big boots and skis, especially in challenging
snow conditions..If the sheer number of G3's already mounted
on skis isn't testament enough to their mass appeal, how 'bout
the fact that the first telemark skis with mounting inserts
use the G3 mounting pattern?"
Backcountry magazine: ".Targa's simplicity and reliability
has made it the most popular binding on the market. With a
clean design that is easy to adjust and service, features
like their anti-icing toe plate, and four types of compression
spring cartridges, this cable binding is a favorite among
straight-liners and powder-miners who appreciate a more neutral
feeling binding." |
