Can’t find much information about this binding as it looks like a new product, but it’s on demo tracks.

Which gets me thinking. I have Elan Ripsticks with Protector bindings on a Tyrolia demo track. Theoretically, I could remove the Protectors from the demo track and put the Almonte 10 demo bindings on? Unless the Almonte used a completely different demo track, this seems like it would be possible.

I'd be a bit surprised if they share a demo track; but if they do that's a very interesting bit of information for people looking to build a one-ski quiver for traveling.

Agree I think the binding is new; haven't seen it before and doesn't appear to be a rebrand. Interesting feature set -- <350g weight, two climbing aids, looks like a gapless heel? Does look like a U-spring based design which means vertical release is fixed (or requires swapping pins) similar to bindings like the Salomon MTN.

Indeed, quite interesting. Other tech bindings demo/rental versions just use longer base plate adjustment in the heel, often coupled with a specific toe piece.

Seens like it would be worth waiting to find out , because indeed, if it’s the same track, it would be an easy way to travel or just save money.
I know other who tour on Ripsticks, they are not that heavy (for a resort ski)
