Hi all
Will Salomon bring out a new Shift for 2020? If so when do they usually release. I am in Australia so am wanting for July 2019

Would they change much or am I safe to get the current ones?

Cheers
Brent

I don't think anything but possibly color is changing.

TGR thread says no change. They may be adding an 11 DIN option next year, however. I'm really hoping for an extra riser that we can retrofit onto the current binding.

Hoping for the same, which would be convenient as I'd probably get a different brake size as well.

Are the current ones not high enough?

i bet when they do bring out a new Shift, its gunna be the bees knees.
I'm thinking more metal where it counts, less where it doesn't. better brakes. higher/more hike mode angles.

I almost got them, but they don't have a completely flat touring mode, which SUCKS on long approaches and the risers aren't very helpful compared to many other touring bindings already available in similar form.... in my opinion. Plus, it's a deathtrap for your fingers if you're not paying attention. I stuck with the Kingpins this season. Waiting for the Shift 2.0 to come out.
