Description & Features
Race ski bindings built for serious alpine racers, the Atomic Icon RS Race Bindings deliver immediate power transfer, precise control, and race-proven reliability. Designed for athletes progressing toward elite competition, these bindings centralize energy underfoot to improve edge grip and responsiveness in every turn.
The Icon RS platform uses Centralized Power Transfer to position the interface directly under the boot. This creates a more connected feel and consistent ski behavior across SL, GS, and speed disciplines. A durable steel and fiberglass PA construction keeps performance consistent through demanding race conditions.
From junior racers stepping up to masters and high-level competitors, the Icon RS series offers multiple DIN options to match skier strength and speed. Built to handle aggressive skiing on hard and icy surfaces, these bindings are trusted for their retention, precision, and durability.

Technology
Centralized Power Transfer
Positions the binding interface directly under the boot using a wider base plate and race mounting pattern. This concentrates power underfoot for immediate transmission while allowing the ski to flex naturally. The result is faster response and more consistent control through every phase of the turn.
Metal Race Pedal
Creates a direct connection between boot and binding by allowing the boot to sit directly on the AFD. This improves power transfer and delivers a more precise, responsive feel on snow.
Elevated Brakes
Designed to sit higher and tuck closer to the heelpiece when retracted. This keeps the brakes clear during aggressive edging and reduces the risk of catching while carving high-speed turns.
Automatic Toe Adaptation
Automatically adjusts to the height and width of Alpine-Norm boot soles. This ensures consistent contact and reliable release values, even as boots wear over time.
