The Look NX 11 GW is an alpine ski binding designed to work with GripWalk-compatible boots. It secures your boots to your skis while accommodating the rockered sole shape of the GripWalk system, letting you switch between skiing and walking without swapping out soles.
GripWalk compatibility means the binding interfaces directly with the curved, rubber-treaded GripWalk sole, giving you more confident traction when you’re on uneven or icy terrain. This alignment also helps maintain consistent release performance, as the binding’s jaws are calibrated to match the sole profile and avoid uneven pressure.
The “11” in NX 11 GW refers to its maximum DIN setting, a standardized scale for the release force of ski bindings. A higher DIN value indicates greater holding power before the binding releases in a fall, which can be important for heavier or more aggressive skiers. GripWalk itself is a boot-sole standard with a slight rocker and rubber walking zone, designed to make walking more secure without affecting on-snow performance.

Look says about the NX 11 GW
Its lightweight toe piece and NX heel work together to deliver strong power transmission and fluid shock absorption with an easy step-in design. The Full Drive Concept toe design allows upward release independent of the heel for the most dynamic release in the event of a fall. The binding's overall lightweight construction makes skiing and carrying skis easier.
