Pure 8
Classic touring on narrower skis, where low weight matters more than a high release setting.
Everything You Need. Nothing You Don't.
The Pure series is the straightforward, lightweight foundation of the HAGAN binding lineup: a clean, dependable tech binding built for the classic touring day without unnecessary weight or complexity. Ski crampon slots on the toe piece mean that even the most approachable setup in the line keeps your options open on icy skin tracks and technical terrain.
The Pure 8 strips things back further still. A lower release ceiling makes it the most minimal and weight-efficient binding in the lineup outside the race-focused World Cup series, which puts it squarely with lighter skiers, fitness tourers, and anyone on narrower skis who wants an honest setup with nothing extra. If you want the same binding with more retention, the Pure 10 raises the ceiling without adding weight.
At 280g, this is the binding that gets out of the way and lets you tour.
The Pure 8 is made for HAGAN in partnership with ATK in Italy, who we work with to bring their best products to North America. It is identical to the ATK Crest 8.
Specifications
Choosing a brake: pick a width equal to or slightly wider than your ski’s waist. A brake narrower than the ski will not clear it.
Shipping & Returns
Orders ship from our US warehouse. Skis ship oversized, so allow a little extra transit time. Full details on our shipping page.
Returns: Unused gear can be returned within 30 days. Once bindings have been mounted, skis cannot be returned. Please confirm your length and brake width before mounting We reccomend brakes be >2mm wider than the skis midpoint.
Warranty: Three years against manufacturing defects, extended to five years when you register your gear. See warranty & returns.
Mounting & Setup
We offer professional binding mounting when you buy a ski and binding together. Add it to your order and we'll mount and test before shipping.
If you're mounting elsewhere, bring your boots — sole length sets the adjustment, and release values should be set and checked by someone qualified.
This is a tech (pin) binding and needs boots with tech inserts. Nearly all modern touring boots have them; alpine boots don't.
