Such springs were typically used in conjunction with some sort of flexible cable.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEnter the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eVoilé 3-Pin Cable Telemark Binding\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. Introduced in 1989, the name is a bit of a misnomer. As with all Voilé tele bindings, there really is no cable in the conventional sense. Instead, a pair of long, rigid, coiled springs with hooks and a locking heel piece complete the necessary toe-to-heel loop. The springs expand ever so slightly with each telemark turn and can be easily adjusted on the heel end. It’s a design that has stood the test of time, and still is very popular with skiers who prefer the comfort and flex of leather and softer-plastic telemark boots.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe so-called “cable” assembly hooks to a bomber toe piece akin to that of the Voilé Hardwire 3-Pin. Similarly, it can be removed to facilitate climbing and reattached for making turns.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAt 1 lb, 13 oz. per pair, the Voilé 3-Pin Cable binding weighs in like a featherweight and performs like a middleweight. And if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Voile","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49373194780904,"sku":"601-BK-H","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1542\/4393\/files\/Volie3-PinCable2027.png?v=1790621196","url":"https:\/\/whitemountainski.co\/products\/voile-3pin-cable-heel","provider":"White Mountain Ski Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
