2026 Tyrolia Protector Attack LYT 13 GW Binding
The Tyrolia Protector Attack LYT 13 GW is a groundbreaking binding that blends freeride performance with advanced safety technology. Built around Tyrolia’s innovative Full Heel Release (FHR) system, this binding is designed to reduce ACL strain during rearward twisting falls while still delivering the power and elasticity that aggressive skiers demand.
Why we like it:
It’s one of the only bindings that actively works to reduce ACL injury risk while maintaining the look, feel, and performance of a modern freeride setup.
Who it's for:
Freeride and all-mountain skiers who want robust retention and safety-minded release mechanics, especially those concerned about knee protection.
Highlights:
The standout feature is the FHR heel, which provides 30° of lateral rotation to release the boot in high-load backward twisting falls, the kind most associated with ACL injuries. Simulations from the University of Innsbruck suggest up to 50% reduction in ACL strain. The binding also includes the proven Attack toe, known for its responsiveness and boot hold. Full GripWalk compatibility ensures seamless use with modern boots.
Things to consider:
It’s heavier than a standard binding and is best suited for skiers who value knee protection above all else. With a stand height of 32mm, those pairing these with wider skis may notice a less responsive feel.
Fit & sizing considerations:
DIN range: 4–13. Brake widths available in 95 mm and 110 mm. Compatible with Alpine and GripWalk soles.
