The 2012 Black Diamond Aspect is perfect as your one ski quiver. You can’t go wrong: powder, crud, wind pack, ice, skinning. It’s more than a touring ski, though, and surprisingly stable at high speed. We know that one ski that does everything perfectly doesn’t exist, but we think this ski is close.
This set-up is equipped with Diamir Fritschi frame bindings, ready to rip the resort or explore the backcountry. This binding utilizes a stiffened rear end for maximized power but still trims off any excess weight. The lightweight design and DIN range from 3 to 10 make this releasable step-in touring binding easy to maneuver off-piste. The Teflon anti-friction plate releases predictably at all DIN values. The adjustable-height toe allows the Diamir Explore to fit non-DIN and DIN norm boots. You can quickly release the heelpiece and adjust the four-position climbing post with your ski pole.

Disclaimer of Warranties:
For previously owned and used skis and bindings:
- Equipment is sold “as is”
- The buyer assumes all risks as to the quality and performance of the equipment.
Special Safety Notice for Bindings: We urge you to take your boots and bindings to a shop certified by the bindings manufacturer to have a function check. The majority of shops will charge for this service. Even though we may, by request, check to see if a binding should fit your boot sole length, such an adjustment, and fit check does not verify that the bindings will release properly with your boot. Only a certified shop can do this with the user’s boots present.
Skiing is dangerous. Ski at your own risk.
