The full sidewalls guarantee direct power transfer to the edges for best performance and stability on both soft snow and hardpack. Free 97 W – for unforgettable powder turns.

The set comes with the Ogso Venus touring binding, the minimalist all-rounder with brakes for classic ski touring.

Pared back to the essentials: The minimalist Venus binding is an impressively light and reliable companion for classic ski tours. Whether for a fast after-work loop on your local mountain, an extended summit tour, or your first attempt on touring skis, the Venus shows one thing spectacularly: Less is more! The binding brings the true spirit of Low Tech back to the summit. It is versatile and, despite total minimalism, it boasts all the features needed for a successful tour – smart construction and premium materials is what makes it all possible. On the descent, the Venus wins points for its top power transfer and total reliability. When it comes to handling and comfort, this lightweight binding knows how to impress. The extra wide plate together with Step-In Side Towers makes entry very easy. In order to ensure the boot is really firmly anchored in the binding, the Venus features special Ice Breaker Pins that displace ice and snow from ski touring boot inserts. In addition, the toe piece is built so any built-up ice and snow loosens and is pushed out when stepping in. That means nothing gets in your way, and you are immediately ready to go. Brakes are retracted in climbing mode with your first step into the binding and are activated automatically in downhill mode. For comfortable climbing on steep terrain, the Venus binding has a new, functionally integrated speed riser that offers a total of three walk modes. Operating it is done with a ski pole. If you like, the riser can of course also be operated by hand. The excenter on the toe piece is also designed to be secured with the grip of the ski pole and be released with the pole tip. And there’s another intelligent extra: Thanks to a re-engineered ski crampon leash, the Venus binding is compatible with the new DYNAFIT ski crampon with “Quick-In-Achse.” Meaning you can attach it not only from the side but also from the top. In particular on challenging terrain, mounting ski crampons from the top is easier and they are more quickly attached. Like the identical DYNAFIT bindings, the Venus has been developed in Germany and manufactured in Europe. Venus Binding – Less is more.
