I have the Atomic Tweak Twin Tips that currently have the Atomic Neox bindings on them and I hate the bindings. They are too heavy, everytime I go off a kicker or something it feels like I've got concrete blocks on my feet. There are so many different types idk what to look at. I'm 5'10" 180, want something light and that's gonna keep me locked in. Help.

you would be fine with the scratch 120 or 140 depending on what din range you want.

rossi scratch series would be good, or Look px - - Salomon bindings are super light, and alotta people like them, but I've seen to many of them broken to recommend them.

Are the Scratch and the Look the same binding, just with different names?

^yes.
At your weight you should probably opt for a 14+ DIN binding, but you could probably get away with 12. Rossi/Look px series, Salomon STH12/16, Marker jesters, and Fischer x17s are all good choices.

They're older FKS's. They'll hold you in a lot better than Markers, but you'll have to go to a ski swap or pawn shop to find an old set of bindings to steal the brakes off for them.

yeah get the px12. Oh and the neox bindings weigh a tonne for sure, so anything is really going to be better on the tweak.

or go for the STH 12. i wasnt sure how burly a binding you wanted. i kinda guessed at 180 if you charged pretty hard you might need more
