You're at Risk
Strains and tears to the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) are now the #1 injury in skiing, with some 70,000 occurrences each year. Collectively, ACL injuries are also the most expensive injury in the history of the ski industry, with an annual health care cost estimated at over $1 billion. Nearly one out of four skiers who injures their ACLs never returns to the slopes.

Ordinary bindings are "two-dimensional," allowing a skier's foot to twist out sideways at the toe, or to release forward at the heel. These two release mechanisms have been standard on all alpine bindings for many years, and they work well to prevent some injuries. But neither of these mechanisms can detect (or respond to) the specific forces that cause most ACL injuries in skiing.

KneeBindings
are Safer!

These revolutionary new ski bindings are premium products, providing all the convenience of ordinary bindings, advanced performance, and better retention and reliability than ordinary bindings.

PLUS - KneeBinding ski bindings provide a third dimension - a PureLateralTM heel release that specifically detects these combined forces and allows a skier's heel to twist out sideways just before such an ACL injury can occur - without pre-release issues!

PureLateralTM heel release!
- no other binding has it.

"Diagonal" bindings won't help.
"Turntable" bindings with side lugs can't help.

Only KneeBinding's patented PureLateralTM heel
release can help prevent most ACL skiing injuries.
