The TARGA Ascent, G3’s featherweight, high performance touring telemark binding, combines the award-winning TARGA T/9 with a pole-activated free pivot system, easily switching the binding from ski to tour mode. In tour mode, the Ascent telemark binding is biomechanically engineered for efficiency, and pivots unrestricted on a stainless steel axle. With an easy flick of the switch, the Ascent converts into an aggressive, high performance downhill binding.
