Power-Width-Design for maximum power transmission:
Marker engineers invented power-width to give freeskiing bindings the ultimate power transmission for today's wide skis. NO OTHER BINDING creates as much power and control. Prior to the Duke and Jester, the only technology to accommodate wide skis was making wide brakes. The attachment for Royal Family bindings features a wide bracket that was built on a 76mm minimum ski width. Previous designs had been based on a 63mm ski width.

Triple Pivot Elite Toe & Inter-Pivot Heel:
5° sole holder angle
High energy absorption to prevent pre-release
Increased boot lug contact
Heel design focuses power in direction of boot sole & elasticity direction (similar to MRR) for superior holding power and energy transfer
