First on the scene and unrivalled, the system developed by HEAD/TYROLIA meets the demands of adult skiers, while being perfectly suited for both retail and rental sectors!

Easiest handling, maximum flexibility, optimized performance, perfect match, more stability and durability all these features are the key to success for PowerRail, the latest binding-system from HEAD/TYROLIA.

The successor of renowned Railflex System II is a modular system:

•PowerRailBase & PowerRail Pro Base
•Dampeners in two different widths for optimal ski-fitting
•4 different binding models: Power 10, 11, 12 and 14, cover all segments
•Suited for boot-sole length of 260 all the way up to 380 mm

The standard base Power Rail consists of a monoblock base body and a cover with an inlaid toothed area. The cover can be colour matched to the ski design.
For unhindered natural ski flex, the base is secured by one fixed pair of screws, and three free-gliding pairs of screws. This ensures the base safely adapts to the flex of the ski.

The high-end variant, PowerRail Pro, is equipped with an additional freeflex band which links both toothed areas at the toe and the heel side of the base. Therefore, toe and heel piece can glide on the base unhindered. This additional double Freeflex Function provides fewer impediments of the natural ski flex, constant release values and better edge grip.

To provide unaffected long-term performance of the new POWER binding models, the toe and heel guides can be exchanged or retrofitted. These features ensure that steady function is guaranteed, even after massive use in rental.

For even more flexibility and optimal fit, both Powerrail and PowerRail Pro bases can be mounted with additional dampeners:

•small dampener for ski width from 64mm onwards
•wide dampener for ski width from 74mm onwards

Next to function and handling, the base was optimized too! PowerRail is 7% wider and 25% lower compared to Railflex II bases, directly improving power transmission from boot to ski.

But for now, back to the system: you can see in the next few seconds how simple and quick mounting and adjusting of Power bindings can be: (Stop watch):

Open the toe lever and slide toe to appropriate position on the base then the heel first hook the brake into the heel housing open the heel lever and slide heel piece on the base close at appropriate boot sole length done!

PowerRail presented by HEAD/TYROLIA and all bets are off.

  • @deadg0at they seem to work well for Miller dont they?

  • Don't buy these. They are rental bindings. Get something really good like Marker (like Gryphons or Barons) or Salomon. The reason you can't find these in ski shops is because they are low or mid end bindings designed for Head brand skis.

  • @ahzarit try snowboarding dude

  • Where can you buy these? none of my local ski shops have them
