Yes - one of the most popular bindings. Someone will probably reply saying 'they suck, get P12s', but they work fine and that is a good price - go for it.

I'd buy them if I were you. I've used the 912ti and 912 for years and can vouch for them. If you are going to use them a ton at Hood or Whistler be careful and rinse them off becasue the springs will corode if you ski them in salty enough snow. They also have some cosmetic plastic parts that can fall off, but there are no better production bindings for keeping your skis atached to your feet. The pro-form price is $112.00 and I think they retail for $300.00...

Yeah, the wings on my two pairs of S900s come loose over time, and the toe height gets looser too. But it's super easy to fix.

your gonna base your decision on what one person says, lift is not a bad thing, it wont effect park skiing and will help you carve everywhere else on the mtn.
