i work at the rental at my mountain, and i hear so much shit about the salomons. id stick to looks if i were you. ive always ridden racestocks (ie p18 or fks) which are the most durable binding out there.

If you get 916 or P18, you'll have them for years, but they are heavier and the DINs start at 8 or 10.

if you want to set the dins at lets say 6 which is 60kg, you are not able to do so with the p18 as the din goes from 8-18. the rossi fks comes as a 120, 155 and 185, and I belive the 120 din starts at 5, not sure tho.

salomon, is not bad, u just cant be retarded setting them up. i love salomons a lot better, but u cna ride a low din(i ride like 8-9) and u can have like nice, easy latteral release=no knee injury. and so they are really tough to get out of vertically, so like. theyre petty much the best. IF u set um up right, and dont like leave them all shitty nad never do anyhting about it but complain about how bad they are.

I skied Salomon bindings until I got sick of stepping out of my skis going 40mph with the DIN's at 11, then I switched to Look/Rossignol. I still have a set of Rossignol bindings from the first year that they were made and they have yet to release when they shouldn't, I don't feel comfortable at all skiing on any other brand. If you really want a light binding and LOVE adjusting them all the time, go with Salomon. If you want something that is super reliable and won't release when it isn't supposed to, go with Look/Rossignol.

i love look and rossi but occasionally i land too far on my tails and suck it in with my stomach smacking my balls into the binding... only has happened two or three times but hurts like F**K when it does
