Voile Hardwire 3-Pin Telemark Bindings
The Voile Hardwire 3-Pin Telemark Bindings deliver a compelling fusion of classic Nordic telemark tradition and contemporary, high-performance engineering. Designed to accommodate virtually any telemark boot with a standard 75mm duckbill toe, these bindings offer unmatched versatility for skiers who demand reliable performance whether touring the backcountry, charging steep descents, or kicking and gliding across flats.
At the heart of the binding is a precision-built toe piece constructed from 6061-T6 aluminum, mounted atop a 20mm nylon riser that ramps slightly upward to accommodate the rocker profile found on many modern telemark boots. Rather than a traditional "rat trap" bail, the binding uses a tempered, embossed steel plate bail that locks down at three distinct levels, allowing for a secure, customized fit across a range of boot sole thicknesses.
What truly sets these bindings apart is Voile's proprietary Hardwire system — a rod-and-cartridge-spring assembly that replaces conventional braided cable with threaded steel rods and heel assemblies. First introduced in 2002, this innovative design delivers exceptional torsional rigidity during turns while eliminating the need for crimps or additional hardware typically associated with cable-based systems. The result is cleaner mechanics, improved reliability, and more responsive edge-to-edge performance on the mountain.
The Hardwire assembly detaches easily from the toe piece, making these bindings an outstanding choice for touring and skinning efficiency. This detachable design also serves as a practical backup solution in the field. For added climbing capability, the Hardwire 3-Pin features a heel pad and dual-height climbing elevators, shared with Voile's Switchback and X2 bindings, reducing fatigue on steep uphill terrain.
