The penultimate binding in Karakoram’s women’s lineup, with a more forgiving feel than the X-Carbon, the Karakoram Prime-XW + Split Interface Splitboard Bindings go all-out in the materials department. They include special aluminum and titanium hardware and hollow titanium pins to get the weight down to 550 grams per binding and make every ascent quicker and easier. Featuring a Carbon Nyolite highback with a manageable “8” flex and Wayfinder straps for smaller feet, the PrimeX-W is the prime choice for the dedicated splitboarder.
