Introducing the Axl

It takes the award winning performance of the HammerHead to new heights.

It's Here! The long-awaited Axl Telemark binding. The Axl sports a bombproof 6-hole mounting pattern, long-lasting chrome die springs, and a front assembly built of tough stainless steel.

We've taken advantage of a unique beta test program to gather input from hundreds of skiers and to use the experience to refine the Axl's design. In fact, most of the parts of the binding have been improved.

Features

  • Super durable: 2000 lb test cable attachments won't break, toepiece forces transmitted steel-to-steel.

What they are saying...

"The Axl debuts as a powerful, easily adjustable free-pivot binding with solid ski feel, durable stainless steel construction, and 55° of tourability."
- Backcountry Magazine

"Ever since I first skied the 22 Designs Hammerhead, all I ever wanted in a telemark binding—the mythical Tele Grail be damned—was a free pivoting version. It took almost a decade, but 22 Designs has finally delivered. In the intervening years every other extant telemark binding company has managed to offer a touring model. However, none of them ski like a Hammerhead. Axl does."
-Craig Dostie
