Marker Griffon X 13 Mwerks Ski Bindings 2026
Marker Griffon X 13 MWerks Ski Bindings 2026
The Marker Griffon X 13 MWerks is a low-stack, freeride-focused ski binding that takes the classic Griffon feel and upgrades it with a lighter X-Series chassis, Triple Pivot Elite X toe, integrated X-Brake, and a 4–13 DIN range.
Why You’ll Want It on Your Daily Driver
- Lower stand height for max snow feel: A radically lower stack height (about 9 mm at the toe and 14 mm at the heel) gives you a more direct connection to the ski, quicker edge-to-edge response, and smoother feedback in every turn.
- X MWerks chassis = lighter & stronger: A single-cast Triple Pivot Elite X toe housing, integrated X-Brake, and refined materials drop weight while boosting stiffness and stability, so your skis feel lively but locked in.
- Freeride power with park-friendly precision: The Griffon X 13 MWerks keeps the same trusted Griffon elasticity and retention but with an even more precise feel—ideal for blasting groomers, slashing pow, and sending side hits.
- DIN range for real skiers: A 4–13 DIN range covers strong intermediates through expert freeriders who want dependable retention at speed with predictable release when it matters.
- Built for modern boots: Compatible with Alpine DIN and GripWalk soles, it’s ready for most current resort boots without weird shim hacks or compromises.
On-Snow Performance & Feel
- Direct power transfer: The integrated X-Brake shortens the binding’s footprint and helps the ski flex more naturally, translating your input straight into edge grip instead of getting lost in plastic.
- Elasticity you can trust: Retained Griffon-level elastic travel in toe and heel helps resist pre-release when you’re landing airs, smashing through chop, or laying trenches on firm snow.
- Optimized for lighter riders: Tuned for lighter and “normal” weight freeriders who don’t need a 16-DIN race binding but still ski fast and hard all over the mountain.
- All-mountain to freeride: Whether you’re spinning laps in the park, skiing trees, or chasing storm days, the Griffon X 13 MWerks is designed as a true do-everything resort binding on mid-fat and wider skis.
Key Features & Tech
- Triple Pivot Elite X toe: Single-cast toe housing keeps the binding compact and rigid, with a stainless steel gliding AFD and Anti Ice Rail you can use to scrape snow and ice off your boots.
- Inter Pivot X freeride heel: Powerful heel with a 20 mm adjustment range and improved step-in feel, built for repeated impacts and high-speed skiing.
- Multi-width X-Brake: Offered in 90, 105, and 120 mm brake widths to match modern all-mountain and freeride ski waist widths without excessive overhang.
- Royal Family X Series: Part of Marker’s X Series within the Royal Family line, bringing race-inspired precision to everyday freeride setups.
