Blacklight Alpine Touring Binding

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"The Blacklight is the binding I recommend when someone wants legitimate downhill performance without giving up the lightweight touring feel. The expanded DIN range of 5–12 covers a wide range of skiers, the bayonet heel step-in noticeably improves power transfer on the descent, and the redesigned riser system is easier to flip with a pole tip than anything in this weight class."

The best backcountry days are the ones where the binding disappears into the experience — where the climb is efficient, the transition is fast, and the descent feels like skiing, not survival. The Dynafit Blacklight Alpine Touring Binding is engineered for exactly that kind of day, delivering a 280-gram platform that performs across the full range of touring missions without asking the skier to compromise in either direction.

A complete redesign from the previous Speed and Speedfit generations, the Blacklight sheds weight and expands the DIN release range to 5–12, giving a wider range of skiers access to its performance. The bayonet positive lock heel step-in improves responsiveness and power transfer on the descent, while the redesigned riser system delivers increased retention in flat mode and easy single-pole adjustment when the skin track steepens. Forged 7075 aluminum, chromoly, and stainless steel construction keep the binding durable without adding unnecessary grams, and brake widths of 75, 90, and 105mm ensure compatibility across a broad range of touring ski widths. Ice breaker pins protect against buildup in icy conditions, and a crampon slot accepts any Dynafit crampon size for technical objectives. Backed by Dynafit's lifetime guarantee for registered products, the Blacklight is a binding you buy once and ski on for years.
