Lebanon NH – January 23, 2018 

The GripWalk family welcomes these new members. The addition of Atomic and Salomon, as well as Rossignol, Lange and Look will further strengthen the leading market position of the unprecedented walkability system from Marker. Taken together with the existing pool of GripWalk partners — K2, Tecnica, Nordica, Fischer, Head, Blizzard, Tyolia, Marker, Dalbello and Völkl — these additions raise GripWalk to a prominent position in just its third year on the market.

THE BENEFITS OF GRIPWALK

GripWalk is a sole/binding system developed by Marker to make walking in ski boots significantly more comfortable, while also reducing the chances of slipping. Yett the GripWalk system also guarantees outstanding on-snow performance.

The GripWalk sole features a rockered profile that supports the natural rolling motion of the foot. Composed from a special rubber miz and a clever ribbed profile, boots with the technology effectively reduce slipping on any surface, from wet tiles in ski lodges to icy parking lots.

GripWalk-labeled ski bindings are designed with perfectly fitting contact points, ensuring optimal power transfer to the ski and precise, reliable release when needed. All GripWalk ski bindings correspond to ISO 9462 (the Alpine norm) and its safety standards. GripWalk soles can easily be mounted onto GripWalk-compatible ski boots.

All that’s needed is a screwdriver and five minutes. Boots with the GripWalk option can be also retrofitted at any time.
