The G3 Onyx binding is compatible only with
alpine touring ski-boots (ISO 9523) with TECH

• Bellowed touring boots, such as the Scarpa® F1, F3
and Terminator X series boots, can only be used with
the Onyx boot shim installed. The shim is available as
an accessory item from G3.
Warning: Using a bellowed boot with the G3 Onyx
binding will affect the safety release of the boot
from the binding. G3 cannot guarantee the

2. Mounting and Installation
• Inspect the ski and binding for any visual signs of
damage or wear. Replace any worn or damaged parts.
2.1. Mounting
• Always follow the ski manufacturer's recommendation
for binding mounting location to ensure that the
binding is mounted in the correct binding mounting
area on the ski.
• The G3 Onyx binding mounting pattern is compatible
with Dynafit® binding patterns. Use a G3 Onyx
mounting jig, or Dynafit® compatible jig to locate and
drill holes in the ski.
• The G3 Onyx is designed to mount to skis with drilled
hole sizes from ø3.5mm to ø4.1mm x 9mm. For skis
with a metal topsheets, use a tap and follow the ski
manufacturer's recommendation for ideal drill size.
• Set the jig to the boot sole size either by fitting the
boot to the jig, or by setting the jig length to match the
desired sole length. Table 3, "ONYX Mounting Guide,"

at the end of this document can be used to determine
the sole length range available for adjustment given a
chosen mount size set by the jig.
• Place the jig on the ski and align the center mark of
the jig to the center mark of the ski. If the ski does not
have a center mark, either:
a) use the ski manufacturer's
measurement to locate the center mark
b) locate the cord center of the ski and mark it. Align
the jig such that boot toe is aligned to this mark.
• Fix the jig in place and drill the holes using the
recommended drill size; either ø3.5 mm x 9 mm or
ø4.1 mm x 9 mm. (4.1 mm for skis with metal
topsheet)
• Remove chips or dust from the holes. Holes should be
glued with waterproof glue
recommended by the ski manufacturer.
