6. Rottefella

Cross country magic! In 1927, Norwegian inventor Bror With created the very first split toe binding. He took them to a race, where Crown Prince Olav spotted them and became curious. When he asked With about the design, the inventor replied that "they were just a couple of rat traps, picked up from a hardware store".

This is how the brand name Rottefella ('rat trap') was established. Since then, the company has secured its place in the market, crafting superior bindings for Telemark and Nordic skiing.
