These adapters are the perfect tool for jumping cliffs or having a booter session in the backcountry on your trusted alpine bindings.
If you're like me and have a favourite heavy duty binding (STH 16) for freeride skiing, you're not going to want to risk using anything else that's not as durable, or that could cause injury. Not only are these adapters light and compact, but they are extremely durable and won't let you down. They are also very quick to transition.
Another note is if you're travelling on planes a lot like me with multiple pairs of skis, these adapters will work on all of them. Makes choosing your quiver so much easier.

I’m purchasing this product on behalf of a friend, and this is my second time buying it. The concept of this product is excellent; it allows the use of regular big mountain skis and bindings. I think this product is more suitable for high-performance skiers who aren’t concerned about weight but insist on using Alpine boots, bindings, and skis. Currently, there are some Alpine boots with only a toe pin on the market, like the Fischer RC4 Pro MV DYN BOA that appears in the video, which pairs well with this product. In my opinion, its concept is similar to Cast, but Cast can only be used with the Look Pivot 15/18 bindings. If you already have a setup that you really like with a big mountain or powder ski and binding, this product is a great alternative.
Although the design of this product is very good, and the craftsmanship is excellent, using these bindings still requires boots with tech pins and skins, and the price of these bindings is almost similar to some discounted tech bindings. In terms of cost, it essentially only saves the price of a pair of skis, and we know there are many discounted touring skis on the market, which are actually very cheap. If you choose a purely touring setup, you also get the added advantage of weight savings. If possible, I would be very excited to see the function of DAYMAKERS CLASSIC that doesn’t require tech pin boots incorporated into this product, while keeping the weight roughly the same. This would make the product even more appealing.

I would not have been able to ski this gnarly zone in Silverton with confidence if it weren’t for my tec-adapters. I get to keep the same set up I ride on all season long in resort and take this to the handful of days I get in steep, gnarly, and unforgiving backcountry terrain. You DEFINITELY want confidence in your set up while skiing any line in the backcountry but ESPECIALLY zones like this.
I love how simple the system is to use, and I don’t have to compromise how my skis feel to ski things I want to in the Backcountry.
It was pretty easy to figure out how the system worked and once I got the hang of it, I had super speedy transitions and I was ready to ski at the same time or faster than my friends on other set ups (and honestly I’m kinda slow at transitioning).
I also love the versatility, I can use this on any ski in my quiver instead of being tied to one touring set up.
Overall, the set up was easy to use, versatile, light and compact. It fit easily in my bag with my other gear. I really trust my daymakers to… well… make my day in the backcountry a great one.
To put into context, I am an advanced skier that loves skiing a variety of steep and exposed terrain. This is definitely going to be my go to as far as touring set up goes. 1000% recommend to anyone looking to have confidence in the backcountry and not wanting to compromise their functionality of their skis + bindings.
