Salomon Strive 12 Gw Ski Bindings

Light, low-slung, and confidence-inspiring, the Salomon Strive 12 GW is an all-mountain binding for progressing and advanced skiers who want strong edge control without the bulk or harshness of a full metal race binding.

The Strive 12 GW uses Salomon’s LDN low-profile toe to drop your centre of gravity closer to the ski, improving snow feel, response, and edge-to-edge quickness. A wide AFD pad and extra-wide toe pedal boost lateral power transfer, while 47 mm of toe elasticity lets the ski flex and absorb impacts without unwanted pre-release. Multi-compatible with Alpine and GripWalk soles, it suits most modern resort boots and pairs well with all-mountain skis from mid-80s to mid-100s underfoot. A low-profile chassis, three-piece heel and fibreglass-reinforced polyamide construction keep the binding robust yet light, ideal for skiers who want a reliable everyday binding that won’t feel heavy or sluggish.

• DIN 4–12 range: Perfect for lighter and medium-weight skiers or those who don’t need the higher settings of a 14 or 16 DIN binding.
• LDN low-profile toe: Lower stand height and wide toe contact area increase snow feel and power transmission.
• GripWalk and Alpine compatible: Works with most current resort boots that meet ISO Alpine or GripWalk norms.
• High toe elasticity: Around 47 mm of travel improves retention in rough snow and reduces the chance of pre-release.
• Wide platform & XL wings: Supports wider skis and wraps the boot toe securely for confident, precise edging.
• Light, durable chassis: Fibreglass-reinforced polyamide body balances low weight with everyday resort durability.
