A bit of history: Almost as revolutionary as the hammer was the first beta test program. The young guns of 22 drawings has decided to maintain this tradition. It is difficult to argue with the results. It is the largest project without modification of the recent revival of Telemark had not experienced major changes.

Axl with just under the hammer spring will be replaced by a couple who placed in the boot behind toeplate. The beginning of spring never contact them, only the plastic casing holder. In this configuration, the one based on the tight wire that allows the sole of the boot to flex a couple of problems as the spring.

Almost all other features that make the exemption is maintained in the hammer axl. The boxes of indestructible stainless steel unit toeplate remains, as the six standard mounting holes, even the strongest available standard mounting Telemark unchanged and only the problems with mandatory retirement, so that you love about Lou blog. Preserved, the finger adjustable yoke and heel heel lever. But more important is the ability to easily adjust the position of the heel cord. Axl is offering four different positions, which is about 2 ½ HH # HH 5ish pass.

Axl pivot pin is in line for an efficient stride, and allows a wide range of over 50 degrees of movement, without obstacles for driving in deep snow or steep terrain. Switching between modes is achieved by pushing, forward or backward, a lock on the front of the union to change the ways of making the burning of a backup for another round.

If there is a Bummer with axl is the weight balance of the deposit in just under four pounds. Experience shows a more free pivot offset the extra weight adds, and we hope that after the beta program, or the final version will be significantly lighter.

At the time, Russell Rainey, inventor of the hammer, could not afford to deal with the repairs. He had been overloaded with Superloop. But the experience taught him that the real customers, who expected that their money is worth, saying that was wrong and that is setting in love with honesty. Therefore, partnerships with its customers and humbly invited them to join their demonstration equipment. 200 people have made, which enabled him to obtain a design in the next version finished in time to December 2000. All those who paid full pop-binding on the prototype was the end of the examination as a free upgrade.
