At 260g this binding sets the bar for performance touring at half the weight. With a modern ramp angle to line up with today’s ski flex profiles, the DPS R10 competes at speed touring weights on the up, and rivals bindings twice its weight in downhill stability and performance. With individually controlled release value of 5-10, a fully functioning integrated brake, and crampon compatible, the DPS R10 does not skimp on features nor performance.

Cool. Perhaps a rebranded ATK binding with DPS logo. Looks similar to an ATK Crest 10.

Everybody is going ATK.
Moment has the Voyager XVI.
Also looks like everyone just raised prices $100.

Unless someone is really attached to DPS and want to have matching logo on binding, going with original logo on binding could easily save you almost $100, as this is standard ATK binding.

until this season , AtK was not sold direct in the US. Hagan, and the Black diamond, are the major sellers. As mentionented, a few other companies have 1 or 2 models also.
Prices have always been much higher than in Europe, so DPS price is inline with others.

Skithewhites sold them last year. Don’t know if that counts as “direct”, but it’s not rebranded.
Prices are up this year maybe close to $200 on the high Din ones.

As the old folk song goes: "Money is the meat in the coconut, money is the milk in the jug." Except in this case, the currency is bindings -- tech bindings, specifically, designed for optimal uphill efficiency and reliable downhill performance. Bindings are the key component in any backcountry...

Aside from branding and pricing, I have this binding and have been very happy with it.
weitgh/features/use of use are pretty well balanced.
My 10 year old daughter also used it last year, and it worked well for her too.
I just bought 2 more pairs.(with ATK on them )

260g is a suspiciously low weight. most widths, with screws, will be a bit more.
