Who here uses them because i was amazed at how light they were compared to my looks. Are they durable? im guessing they are less bombproof then look/rossi but there not too unreliable right? And is the difference between the z12 ti and the z10 ti just the din because theres a 80$ difference between them on untracked.com.

so far i have had no problems.... worse case though tthey do have a 5 year warrenty
z12s for sure though if you can salomons always seem to let you out sooner than later so you may want the extra retention....

need to bump this,
I need to know how these Z series have been holding up for people this season. I've skied their 9 series (driver toepiece) for as long as I can remember and aside from having to tighten a wing now and then, they've been pretty bomber. I ski mostly bumps and some park. I went to Solly's website and was amazed to see that they only have 4 9 series bindings on there and alot of these new Z series. They also had absolutely no product description which blew my mind if they want to sell anything. So I'm turning to you; who has them, more importantly, has anyone compared them to 9 series first hand? I'm not looking to be sold on Rossi's or Looks either so no thanks if that's all you got.
Thanks for your help in advance...

they are great binders for begginer to intermediate park skiers, or really light peeps, but if you throw down, they are not your binding. for those, you need sal 916s, look turntables, Rossi FKSs, etc

that's what I thought, but why does Solly have several Z bindings this year ranked ahead of their 9 series on their website? Makes no sense...or are they actually a decent binding?

for comparisons sake...I have a pair of s912s on my park skis that a shop gave to me for free that were used. Been on them for about 2 years no probs, my friend blew his z12s up on his 4th day out. Shitty.

My friend just got some z12ti's last weekend, just broke em this weekened....They just straight snapped. If u dont ride hard, and your really tiny, these will be fine, but if you like actually doing stuff off of jumps, find something else....=\
