No offence, but I really dont think you need a binding as burly as that.

My neighbour has a bunch of FKS bindings, some new in boxes. I can see them through the window when I'm mowing the lawn. I'll as her and see what DIN's she has, and how much. All I know is that she used to be a hardcore racer, but something about carpul tunnel...

There are probably about 10-15 boxes of them.

It seemed as if he was interested in the 155's, and I have seen his size/ability, and the 155 exceeds both, as it does for me as well.

I have the FKS 120's, and PX12's(same as the scratch 120's), adn I can assure you there is virtually no weight difference. The FKS feel a tad bit lighter, but you really have to hold them for a while to recognize the difference.

If you want to go the FKS route, I would suggest the 120s. I'm 5'9, 160lbs, and ride at an 8. I could have gone with the 155's, but they dont have the vertical release toe....

I'm 6'2 160 lbs and ride at a din of 10. Most people say that I don't need a burly binding like a p18. I've broken 3 pairs of PX12's, don't assume things over the internet. Most people looking for Burly bindings either need them, or need them to last in 10 years.
