KD Vise Adjustable Rear Toe Plate (2027)

A floating tongue design adapts to a range of foot shapes, and the single lace system with extended overlay secures the fit. A specially sculpted footbed and Lycra-lined inner add comfort and support, whether you're on your first wakes or a shortline pass. Neoprene lined, with a front lace system.

A rubber (fixed) RTP is the simplest and cheapest rear — a moulded toe piece in a set position, good for recreational skiers and easy foot-out starts. An adjustable RTP (ARTP) lets you slide the toe piece forward or back to fine-tune your stance without re-drilling. A full rear boot holds your whole back foot for the most locked-in control, favoured by course and advanced skiers. Match the rear to how you ski: foot-out and casual leans to a rubber or adjustable RTP; committed two-feet-in skiing leans to a rear boot.

A complete slalom setup needs a front binding (your front foot goes in fully) plus a rear. The rear can be a full rear boot, which holds your back foot like the front for the most control, or a rear toe plate (RTP) — a simple toe piece your back foot rests in rather than laces into. An RTP lets your back foot slide out more easily (useful for learning deep-water starts or skiing with one foot out), while a full rear boot locks you in for maximum edge control. Front bindings are usually sold separately from the rear.

Most modern slalom bindings mount to the ski's universal insert holes (the standard 6-inch pattern) or bolt onto a plate, so they fit the majority of current slalom skis. Always check your ski's hole pattern, and for a rear boot or rear toe plate, that it matches your front binding's mounting. Note that some rear boots and plates aren't cross-compatible between brands — for example, HO rear boots don't fit rear Radar or Connelly inserts — so confirm the combination before mixing brands.
