    Sam Tarling's review

    The CAST freetour is the only true inbounds-capable touring binding, in my opinion. It is a true Look Pivot binding, with the ability to skin for short sidecountry access.

    If you're going to get a hybrid binding, might as well make sure it is bombproof. While one of the heaviest systems on the market, the CAST is the only hybrid system I feel comfortable pushing myself while wearing.
