SE EKr

Dedicated to climbing skin development and evolution for 20 years, G3 is proud to launch ALPINIST+, a complete line of high performance climbing skins that fit the ideal balance of GRIP and GLIDE for any given backcountry situation, anywhere, anytime.

It’s backcountry play time. The new SEEKr uses a lighter version of the technical FLYRIDE+ carbon construction from the award-winning FINDr and cranks up the fun dial for soft snow with a modern all-mountain shape and profile.

FLYRIDE

CONSTRUCTION

ZED

Starting with the ION, we challenged every part, every mechanism and every screw to further evolve the idea of a fully featured binding at the lightest weight possible. With the ZED we’ve redefined the next generation of high-performance lightweight touring bindings.

Go Lighter. Go Further. Go Hard.

3

A new camming tail connector, the asymmetrical tip connector, a pre-cut straight edge and the brand new momix fabric option take the only truly splitboard-specific climbing skins another step further ahead of the pack.

CABRIO

The CABRIO 30 is designed for skiers, boarders and other backcountry travelers and can be used with or without the Alpride airbag system – one of the lightest, simplest and smallest airbag technologies available – the combination makes for a fullyfeatured backcountry pack with 30L of functional space.

PREMIUM CARBON FIBRE CONSTRUCTION WHY G3? SKIS Designed, engineered and tested deep in the wild-west of BC’s Coast Mountains, G3 skis are purpose built for skiing hard in the backcountry.

Premium lightweight materials balance with G3’s unique chatter-proof technologies for fast ascents and powerful descents.

SE FI NDr EKr

SE RO RO SE EKr AMr AMr NDr elle elle

SIDEWALLS IN ALL SKIS

G3 uses only premium carbon fibre laminates in the FINDr, SEEKr, and SENDr skis. These are the same 100% multi-directional stitch bonded fabrics used in aerospace industries.

To optimize the flex, rigidity and power transfer specific to each ski, we meticulously engineer the orientation, amount and structure of every layer of carbon above and below the core.

WET VS. DRY LAYUP G3 starts with dry and flexible sheets of carbon fibre for each ski. This allows us to use exactly the right amount of resin for each ski’s size, weight, and the amount of carbon laminate. This takes advantage of high precision compaction and an optimized fibre to resin ratio. Our process minimizes unnecessary resin weight and maximizes the carbon’s contribution to flex, rigidity and power transfer.

WHAT IS POLYURETHANE? Polyurethane (or PU) is an elastomeric polymer material known for its energy absorption, durability, and elasticity. It is commonly used in skateboard wheels and racecar bushings to make for a smoother ride.

3 DIMENSIONAL CORES

NO MORE CHATTER An inherent problem with carbon and ultralight touring skis is chatter, due to the light and stiff materials used.

PU sidewalls counteract this chatter by absorbing that extra energy and creating a more damp ride overall.

Every G3 ski has a specific purpose. With that purpose in mind we develop a specialized core profile that focuses the strength and weight of the ski exactly where it is needed. The FINDr features a thinner spine for maximum weight reduction and reduced swingmass, the SEEKr spine is wider to allow for more playfulness in the turn, while the ROAMr and SENDr spine covers almost the full width of the ski for optimal mass distribution and power transfer.

DURABILITY & VERSATILITY The elasticity of PU increases durability by 30% improving protection from sidewall impact when compared to ABS. Using PU in ski construction also allows for a permanent bond to the wood core and a seamless sidewall.

METAL MATTERS

11

BUILT TO LAST

TITANAL LAYERS G3’s aggressive SENDr and ROAMr skis pack two full tip-to-tail layers of 7000 series Titanal aluminum for dampness and maximum control at high speeds.

MATERIALS THAT CAN HANDLE THE ABUSE OF BACKCOUNTRY SKIING G3 produces the highest performing products and doesn’t hold back on crucial materials to save weight. Durability and performance are paramount. Hardened, corrosion resistant, alloy steel edges featured in G3 skis allow for extreme durability and integrity through multiple tunes.

TITANAL MOUNTING PLATES Built into G3’s ultralight FINDr & SEEKr skis for optimal mounting integrity to prevent the binding from pulling out in the field.

FULL THICKNESS BASES While other ski manufacturers may be using thinner bases to cut weight, G3 utilizes full thickness Electra 2000 bases for optimal performance in the field. These allow for multiple tunes to maximize the performance of the ski throughout the life of the product. More importantly, these thicker bases are far less susceptible to impact damage from hidden rocks and other potential obstacles.

SKI MOUNTAINEERING

Lightweight, stable, and ready for anything. The FINDr features G3’s progressive FLYRIDE PLUS construction to balance low weight with ultra-high performance in the field. To dampen the inherent stiffness and chatter from a full carbon fibre layup, the FINDr was the first in our ski line to use PolyUrethane sidewalls. This all comes together to create a tool for ski mountaineering objectives with stable downhill performance.

WHY G3? BINDINGS G3 binding design focuses on simplicity, reliability and performance; yielding a superior binding with the most consistent and reliable release and retention. Our end goal is to provide a binding so seamless that you don’t even have to think about it - you just step-in with ease and get the most out of your backcountry experience. Power up then charge the descent with confidence.

REAL WORLD BINDING RETENTION Standard release tests don’t account for many of the real world causes of unwanted binding release. G3 takes binding testing further to ensure consistent step-in and retention that holds up to the very real challenges of snowpacking, boot icing, step-in techniques, high speed chatter and toe jaw pressure.

FEATURES FOCUSED ON PERFORMANCE Our goal at G3 is not to make the lightest gear possible. Our goal is to make the lightest gear possible without sacrificing performance.

G3 bindings are stacked with features to meet those performance standards and allow the user to climb up and drop in with confidence.

Optimal toe elasticity, forward pressure, fully adjustable vertical and lateral release values, a wide freeride mount, snow clearing design and dependable brakes are just a few of the features that set G3 apart from other lightweight competitors.

WHAT DOES LOCKING OUT DO? Locking the toe is a tour function that eliminates unwanted release while skinning uphill. Many backcountry skiers have adopted the practice of locking out while skiing as a hacked solution for retention inconsistency.

Locking the toe while skiing defeats the release mechanism and puts you at risk.

ELASTICITY KEEPS YOU IN For most tech bindings, energetic skiing in chattery conditions means unwanted pre-release - this is how the bad habit of skiing with locked out toe pieces was born.

As the toe jaws on these bindings partially spread, the force required to release the binding drops drastically, causing unwanted release. G3’s unique toe jaw dynamics flip that trend, absorbing roughly 50% more energy than other tech bindings before releasing. Meaning you can use it for what it was designed for—you skiing confidently in ski mode without the fear of prerelease.

SIMPLICITY G3 binding engineers constantly explore the design limitations and stress points of touring bindings, challenging the status quo to find the absolute simplest solution for any given problem. The result is the most intuitive and easy-to-use touring bindings available.

Be it the simple BootStop without any moving parts, the easy-to-grab QuickFlick heel lifts, or the ability to make all adjustments and mounts with a single Pozi Drive #3 screwdriver - the driving factor for these features when designing the binding was to have the best possible user experience every time you go skiing.

ZED NEW

GO LIGHTER. Starting with the proven platform of the ION, we looked at every part, every mechanism, and every screw to evolve the idea of a fully featured binding at the lightest weight possible.

With the ZED we set out to define the next generation of lightweight high-performance touring bindings.

1

Single screw for full adjustment of vertical & lateral release

2

Simple, minimal Boot Stop for effective step-in guidance

3

Streamlined shapes maintain full performance at minimal weight

QuickFlick heel lifts are easy to manipulate with your ski pole

GO HARD.

A binding can be light and simple for the hike up, but none of that matters if you can’t ski it the way you want. The ZED truly stands confident in a league of its own with all the power and performance of a much heavier modern touring binding, but packs it into a super light and simple package.

ION BACKPACKER

EDITOR’S

CHOICE 2017

SKIER'S CHOICE

HIGH PERFORMANCE IN A PROVEN PLATFORM The ION family of bindings is engineered to the highest performance standards. The optimal toe elasticity and forward pressure in the heel result in maximum energy absorption and consistent release during active use. The wide freeride mount transfers power to the edges, enhances torsional rigidity and provides superior pull-out resistance.

Rigorous testing in the lab combined with real-world field testing by users pushing the limits on skis help us create the best performing bindings in their class.

SIMPLE & INTUITIVE ION bindings feature fluid, efficient and confidence inspiring step-ins and transitions. The integrated BootStop aligns your boot toe for a quick, easy and consistent engagement. The QuickFlick heel lifts are easy to grab with your ski pole or hand while the omnidirectional heel allows you to turn the binding heel in either direction to lock for touring. The bindings have been built to require a single Pozi Drive #3 for all mounts and adjustments, reducing the number of tools you carry with you. The driving factor for these features when designing the binding was to have the best possible user experience every time you go skiing.

ION 12

ION LT 12

ION 10

The highest performing, most user friendly and most reliable tech binding for aggressive backcountry skiers. Refined with 4 seasons of testing and enhancements.

A sleek, lighter, brakeless version of the ION for ski mountaineers and gram counters.

The ION’s simplicity and reliability in high value model with lower release range of 4-10.

Simple Boot Stop - Minimal weight, effective step in guidance.

RELIABLE & DURABLE You know a binding does its job when you don’t notice it all day. The snow clearing channel allows easy ice and snow discharge preventing build up and unwanted prerelease. The brake is spring loaded and fully retracts giving a reassuring step-in and confidence in its ability to stop bigger freeride skis. The heel AFD (Anti Friction Device) ensures consistent release for all boots, independent of sole type. You don’t have to worry about the binding. Just ski, and ski hard.

Heel Rest - Simple, lightweight.

NEW FOR 2018/2019 WHY G3? SKINS

G3’s premium line of ski climbing skins features innovative technology and engineering so you can move more efficiently in the backcountry.

Dedicated to climbing skin evolution for over 20 years, G3 is proud to launch ALPINIST+ and SPLITBOARD+, two complete lines of high performance climbing skins that fit the ideal balance of GRIP and GLIDE for any given backcountry situation, anywhere, anytime.

G3 continues to push the limits of what can be done in splitboard skins. Split-specific features include asymmetrical connectors, the new camming tail clip and new plush options for specialized uses.

BEST-IN-CLASS PLUSH FABRICS G3 develops premium nylon, mohair, and mixed plush materials to engineer the right solution for each backcountry user.

WHERE DOES GRIP COME FROM? It’s one of the seemingly endless questions we ask to challenge the status quo of climbing skin design. Skins that cover the entire base of your skis are overkill and heavy. Most of your skin’s grip comes from just under the binding while fabric on the tip and tail creates unnecessary drag. Exposed ski base and alternative materials can significantly improve glide and efficiency without affecting that allimportant grip.

Any location and all conditions.

Universal nylon plush material is durable and versatile. Optimal balance of grip, glide, weight and durability.

Maximum grip and traction ideal for steep ascents and icy skin tracks. High-traction nylon plush material for durability and versatility.

All-purpose, go-anywhere skin built for cold and dry conditions with improved waterproofing.

70% mohair for optimal glide and 30% nylon for added durability.

Our lightest and fastest skin excels in cold and dry conditions. 100% mohair plush material with improved waterproofing increases glide and overall speed in the mountains.

RETAIL READY The sophisticated new packaging design for all ALPINIST+ and SPLITBOARD+ skins serves as a premium presentation for the retail floor. Partnered with G3’s updated skin POP displays they create the best possible shopping experience for retail customers.

UNRIVALED TIP & TAIL CONNECTION

QUICK TRIM Every pair of G3 skins are packaged with the fastest and simplest trim tool available. This makes it super easy for the user to trim their new skins at home or the retailer can offer this as an added value in the shop.

The innovative, patented tip and tail connectors in all G3 skins create a lightweight, solid and reliable connection to your skis or board.

The self-aligning hands fit easily on any shape, and the camming tails on all ALPINIST+ and SPLITBOARD+ skins are super easy to attach and remove in all conditions.

EASY TRANSITIONS & BOMBER CONNECTION G3’s low profile, elongated tail strap makes transitions fast and easy. The refined camming clip stays positioned on the ski, reduces wear and allows for easy adjustments.

Climbing skin adhesive is best when you never notice it and it just works the way you expect it. So many variables can affect the way your adhesive performs, and we are constantly working to improve the product so it is prepared for any scenario. The updated adhesive in all ALPINIST+ and SPLITBOARD+ skins features a refined formula engineered to let you do more laps and cover more terrain without having to worry about your skins.

NEW CAMMING TAIL CONNECTOR Eliminating the need for difficult positioning and hard pulling to affix the tail strap, the new SPLITBOARD+ tail connector features a straight edge to line up on your board and a simple camming clip that requires very little effort and will hold the tail strap in place with confidence.

ASYMMETRICAL TIP CONNECTOR G3’s splitboard skin tip connectors are inspired by our ski skins, but custom tailored for splitboards. The low profile, self-aligning stainless steel hand on each skin tip allows for a secure, lightweight connection on any board shape.

PRE-CUT STRAIGHT EDGE The tip and tail connections and the straight edge of the skin fabric are all built to naturally align with your board out of the box.

You only need to trim the shaped edge of the skin to dial in a custom fit.

NEW SIZING WITH MORE OVERLAP The sizing curve for the SPLITBOARD+ skins reflects real user needs and positions the most popular board lengths in the middle of a size. The S/M and M/L skins overlap for 8 cm allowing splitters who fall within that range a choice to have more skin fabric for additional coverage or less material for weight savings.

PACKS 52

CABRIO NEW

BACKCOUNTRY COMFORT & FEATURES Fit and comfort designed specifically for backcountry movement are of paramount importance for the CABRIO packs. Each model features a vertically stable structure while still allowing for the dynamics of skiing and riding. The snow-shedding moulded backpanel transfers the load of the pack to the hips, while the waistbelt features just the right amount of padding for the size of each pack. The comfortable shoulder harnesses are built to accommodate movement for the uphill and the down. CABRIO packs are user-focused winter backcountry packs that can be used with or without the removable Alpride 2.0 Airbag System.

SAFETY IN SIMPLICITY Every G3 product is held to a high standard of simplicity, reliability, design and light weight. Each piece of technology in the CABRIO packs had to use these expectations to ultimately increase the safety and experience of the user. The Alpride 2.0 Airbag System is a perfect fit as its design does not rely on electronics, batteries, or software. This mechanical system can be relied on to do its job everytime. Inspiration for this gas cylinder system came from a similar design found on emergency life jackets – a maintenance free system that has been trusted for nearly 50 years.
