$90.96
What We Love
- • Lightweight and easy to step into
- • Appropriate DIN range for most kids
- • Simple and reliable
Worth Knowing
- • Not suitable for heavier or aggressive skiers who need a higher DIN
- • Max DIN of 5.5, which is appropriate for most younger and lighter skiers
The Salomon L6 GripWalk Junior Ski Bindings are a strong choice for most young skiers because they’re easy to use and don’t get in the way. They’re lighter than higher-DIN options and require less force to step into, which matters when kids are still learning to manage their own gear. That ease of use reduces frustration and helps them stay independent on the mountain. The DIN range is lower, but it’s appropriate for the majority of junior skiers. Unless your child is heavier or skiing aggressively, there’s no need to move up to a higher-DIN binding.
