The Ultra World Cup is made for HAGAN in partnership with ATK in Italy. HAGAN partnered with ATK, well respected for quality, craftsmanship and functionality, to bring what we feel are their best products to North America. The Ultra World Cup is identical to the ATK SL World Cup but in Yellow and Green.
The HAGAN Ultra World Cup binding is the same 110 grams as the previous version. Monolink Technology® – the Ultra toe springs are only on one side – reduces weight and complexity and increases reliability.The toe Easy Entry System uses a polymer wheel bearing to ease step in.
An improved locking lever, with added grip surface, eases locking. Most of the time you needn’t bother with that, though. The toe lever automatically snaps into a "semi-locked" position upon step in — the semi-locked position is strong enough to avoid release in less technical climbs. This auto feature saves a few valuable seconds in transition. The toe can be manually fully locked when desired.
HAGAN’s prime values are durability, performance, ease of use and value. The Ultra World Cup improves on all of them! Mount the Ultra binding on the Ultra 65 ski and you have the most dependable, highest performing ski/binding race system on the planet.
The Ultra World Cup is the perfect complement to HAGAN Ultra Seriesskis. Or pair the Ultra with the narrowerCore and Pure Series skis for the ultimate lightweight backcountry skiing set up.
WEIGHT: 110 grams Made of ultra-light aluminum with titanium U-springs. MONOLINK TECHNOLOGY 1.0: Only one of the toe arms has springs. This provides higher clamping stiffness in addition to lower weight. “Easy entry system” for even better boot step-in performance with extremely reactive and powerful closure and a new front lever that provides more comfortable locking and unlocking, with a "dimple" for the pole tip for using your ski pole to release the toe piece. Polymer wheel bearing for easy toe locking and unlocking. ROLLING IN SYSTEM U SPRINGS:
Vastly improve longevity by allowing end of spring to rotate with the force of the boot as it engages (see photo). RELEASE CONSISTENCY: Plain titanium U Springs quickly develop notches through use. These notches eventually grow to the point that the springs need to be replaced. Well before that, however, they begin to affect consistency and reliability of release. RELEASE VALUES: Fixed at approximately a DIN value of 8 for lateral release and 9 for vertical release. The retention strengths were refined over the years by our team athletes as the best balance between safety and stability. CRAMPON ATTACHMENT SLOTS: Integrated crampon hooks sold separately ADJUSTABLE HEEL COVER PIN SYSTEM: Easily adjust the rotation of the heel cover to your desired resistance. ADJUSTMENT: 30mm adjustment plate available. EXTRAS: Ski leashes, ski brakes and replacement parts readily available. Sold in sets of two, including screws.
