We took our Olympic Series bindings – already the highest performance, most adjustable alpine bindings made – and raised the bar. Meet the OS2. Featuring our all new Power Plate design, the OS2 offers a long list of improvements to an already spectacular product.

What's New:

Infinite, repeatable angle adjustments (no more 3° increments)
Zero-wear stainless steel tilt cups (no divots, no disc marring, just bomb-proof tilt screw engagement)
Kingpin/Spherical nut o-ring lock system keeps the system tight on the gnarliest high vibration snow surfaces
New & improved heel bail profile for optimized boot fit
"Dip Stick" quick cant/lift differential measurement gauge – easily check and replicate your tilt settings
Decreased stack height (of course, you can still increase your ride height if you like extra lift, in fact, every OS2 comes with an extra pair of long kingpins for extreme cant or lift set-ups)
Lower weight for all models

  

What's not new: Cornerstone CATEK Olympic features

The Custom Color Upgrade option gives you the opportunity to personalize your new bindings. Purchase your OS2s from our CATEK Direct online store and you can upgrade the bindings with your own custom combination of our silver, gold, red, blue and black anodized colors (standard OS2s are all silver). We'll build the bindings exactly according to your color choices and ship them direct to you.

Standard | Step-In
We offer the OS2 bindings in Standard or INTEC-compatible Step-In versions. The choice between the interfaces is mostly an issue of personal preference, but there are a few general differences. The SI system is slightly more rigid than the bail closures, particularly in regard to lateral movement. The bail/toe lever Standard system accomodates a wider range of boots, including ski boots and older, non-INTEC compatible boots, and our new heel bail offers the best boot fit available. The SI system requires that you install INTEC heel units on your boots.

Short | Long Plates
The Short Plate is ideal for smaller boot sizes (<10US) and lighter (<180lbs) riders. The 3/8" thickness provides a more forgiving ride than the long plate. The Long Plate accepts all boot sizes, and its 1/2" thickness provides the most powerful ride on the market. Riders weighing more than 180lbs or with a boot size greater than 10US must use the long plate.
