The ATK Raider 12 AP is a freetouring oriented alpine touring binding that makes no compromises on the ascent or the descent thanks to its light weight and yet stable construction.

The ATK Raider 12 is ATK's top model for demanding ski tourers for whom weight is certainly an important factor, but who are not willing to compromise on performance. A concentrate of technology, elegance and design at the highest level. The jewel of the Free Touring category with the new AP semi-automatic braking system. A complete product embellished with 7 systems patented by ATK that guarantee high performance.

Features:
• The AP Brake System complements all the technical and elegant features that make the Raider a historic binding that has been constantly improved since 2013.
• This is because its toe piece is equipped with the aluminium Snowpack Proof System, the Uphill Hardness Variator and amazing geometries that make boarding easier.
• It features the Cam Release System for effortless entry and amazing torsional rigidity. All this to ensure full control even in the most demanding turns.
• Because it offers improved downhill performance thanks to the Elastic Response System, which ensures precise releases and optimum performance of the ski by supporting its natural flex.
• Integrated crampon holder.

Technologies:

Easy Entry System
This system is characterized by a new geometry of the toe part elements.
Advantages:
• Super easy and confident step in on the toe part, with any tech boot available on the market, even in case of worn out soles.

Cam Release System
The king of the ATK patented systems! The CAM RELEASE SYSTEM is fitted inside of the touring bindings heels in order to drive the boot step-in and vertical release in case of fall. A special CAM profile is pressed towards the heel pins by a pre-tensioned spring: when the step-in or a fall release occur, the pins are forced to go through the CAM profile which provides a precise resistance to the pin release, depending on the release value set on the binding.
Advantages:
• Provides the most stable downhill performances on the market with consistent reduction of boot torsion compared to any other tech heel part.
• Extremely precise release performance.
• Provides the softest heel step in of the industry.
• Small dimensions compared to performance and astonishing lightweight.

Elastic Response System
A spring is placed in between the base plate of the binding and the adjustment screw. When the ski bents under the effect of a compression or a jump, the 4 mm distance in between boot and heel can be reduced or deleted and the heel part can slide backward and forward under the effect of the spring.
Advantages:
• Grants the natural ski flex, also in case of big jumps/compressions.
• Improves binding release performance when the binding is stressed.
• Reduces the pressure on the ski-boot-binding system.

Magneto Heel Flaps
An ingenious as simple magnet system provides the handling and stabilization of the heel flaps.
Advantages:
• Extremely light and comfortable heel flaps system

Snowpack Proof
A special design of the toe part that avoids any snow/ice/debris build-up under the hooking elements.
Advantages:
• No snow pack under the toe part, even with several up-hill/downhill transitions.
• Avoids snow loads on the toe piece, granting a perfect lightness at any moment.

Uphill Hardness Variator
This system is an exclusive privilege of the RT, R12 and FR14 families. A multi-position selector is placed in between the front lever and the toe piece base plate. By changing the selector setting, the uphill mode locking hardness variates by increasing the pressure on the locking mechanism.
Advantages:
• It compensates the boot toe insert wear and tear during the years.
• Provides a proper locking strength for each user (softer for lighter users, harder for strong ones).
• Reduces the pressures on the locking mechanism.

Please note: The selected stopper size should be the next largest, based on the center width of the ski (example: center width 95mm -> 100mm stopper). The selection "Size" corresponds to the stopper width.
When ordering a set we automatically mount the suitable stoppers without surcharge.
