What's this XM13 binding shown on Stockli's website? It says the binding is manufactured by Salomon and looks like a Warden demo binding, but the stand height is 30 not 27 shown here.
It also mentions "The targeted use of Titanal has allowed for a reduction of the binding's weight by 15%. " but it seems I did not see this mentioned on Salomon's website (plus that the Warden 13 DT is really heavy...)
