Will TX Pros work in AT Frame Bindings?

Post by herkskis » Tue Nov 09, 2021 1:28 pm

Hey all,

I've come towards the light this offseason, picking up a pair of Scarpa TX Pros, along with some 22D Lynx's mounted on Voile V6's. I have a pair of Fritschi Diamir Freeride AT Frame bindings that I skied last year, and I was just curious if there was any reason that I shouldn't use my TX pros with them if I wanted the extra security that comes along with DIN releasability. I adjusted the bindings to the proper BSL and everything seems to fit correctly, but a google search turned up no info about whether it was wise to do so.

Thanks!

Why would you do that? Free your heels...don't surrender to the dark side of the force.

Tx boots used to come with an adaptor for use with Dynafit. I expect they stopped doing that because they didn't want to get sued if someone broke their leg.
It'll probably work to hold your foot in. I don't think I'd do it with the expectation that it would improve safety, though.
