Armada Strive 10 GW Bindings

The Binding

The Strive 10 GW is Armada's answer to a pretty simple question: what do most recreational and intermediate skiers actually need in a binding? Not a DIN 14 race plate. Not a tech insert system for the backcountry. Just a well-built, reliable alpine binding that holds your boot, releases when it should, and doesn't cost more than your skis. That's exactly what this is.

DIN range runs 3–10, which puts it squarely in the sweet spot for beginner to intermediate skiers. If you're skiing Seven Springs top to bottom and occasionally pushing into the terrain parks or blue groomers at Hidden Valley, this binding has plenty of range for you.

What Sets It Apart

Super lightweight and versatile, the STRIVE 10 GW is perfect for lightweight skiers with easy step in action and a short footprint that allows the ski to flex naturally. The LDN (low, direct and neutral) toe keeps the boot low to the ski for great feel.

This isn't for you if you're a strong advanced skier pushing DIN 10+ regularly, or if you're planning to charge serious off-piste terrain. Step up to a higher DIN binding for that. But for the vast majority of recreational skiers? The Strive 10 hits the mark.

Compatibility

The Strive 10 GW is a standard alpine binding — it works with any alpine with a standard ISO 5355 alpine or Gripwalk sole. It is not compatible with walking-mode boots or any touring/tech boot format. The 90mm brake width is the available option, so you'll want to have a ski with under 90mm waist width. Come see us if you're unsure — we mount these in-house and we'll make sure everything lines up correctly.
