Pin Up 8 EVO

High Performance for lighter skiers.

The Pin Up 8 EVO 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 Pin Up 8 EVO is identical to the ATK RT8 EVO.

While the push pin system is effective and quite easy to operate and, the automatic brakes are easier. There is another advantage of the new brakes - and it is a big and important one. You can't forget to release the brakes on the descent.

Switching into descent mode automatically puts the brakes into "ready" mode. If you descend on the push pin version but forget to first push the pin to release the brakes ($#it happens) you will have carried up brakes that do absolutely nothing in case of a crash. With the Pin Up 8 EVO, the brakes are always ready to deploy in descent mode, no matter how distracted or forgetful you are.

EVO benefits:

• Easy one-handed operation. On other bindings you need to hold down the brakes with one hand while pushing a pin or turning the heel tower with the other.

• Brake retraction for climbing is automatic when you step down. There is no need to push down the brakes with your hand.

• Dual heel lifters mean no twisting to switch between flat, medium and high climbing heights

• You can't forget to release the brakes for the descent!
