OK, Time to buy all the stuff I need for this upcoming season... I decided to slap on my boots and click into my bindings and both of them actually snapped! So i can't decide between the s912ti's or the rossi scratch/look pivot bindings. Any suggestions and an explanation for once, haha...

Get the Salomons. They are so good. I have some and they are the best bindings i have ever used. Really tight!

i just bought rossis, haven't tried 'em yet. but what made the decision for me was the smaller mounting zone, and also the deisign of the heel piece, cuz it allows the heel to swivel a little on hard backseat landings rather than just release you out. and i ride backseat all the time, so that's a good thing. also my friend has 912s and after 2 seasons they're starting to come apart and they're prereleasing more often than they should. so i'd say rossis.


my level of radness... it just can't... be quantified.

while the swivel bindings realease u one way its better for moguls. the front realease isn't as good. some salomon bindings have side swivel release in the toe however they screw up in the pipe and break. just get s912ti bindings and call it a good day.

dont' skip out on look. super solid binding. only release when you need it. plus the base length on those is smaller than a salomon, so the ski can have a more natural flex - it won't be a huge change, but ive always like Rossi and Look better by far. I broke my salomons jumping, and from my epxerience look into the Rossi 100-140 or TM binding from LOOK.

all three of the bindings are hig quality sometimes if u ride a soft ski like the 1080 its better to have a plate or binding that resists flex more. or when u ride a sittfer ski like a volkl its better to have a marker or look binding.
