At this local sports store, they are sellin 08 fujis with the Marker 11.0 Free Bindings.   However, I don't know too much about Marker bindings, for some reason I get the impression that they aren't great bindings.  I just want to know what you guys think about these bindings/Marker.

Marker makes some great bindings...I stick to rossi or look but my second choice would be marker for sure...mroe specifically the badass new jesters.  As far as the marker 11.0 free goes, they are pretty sick...obviously 11 din, they are titanium which means they are nice and light, and the free comes with the rubber riser to absorb some impact I'd get them if they are in the package..but see what your upgrade options are you might be able to get a better binding for only a few extra bucks

I'm pretty sure much of this site has it decided that markers all suck except for the new Dukes and Jesters.
I have no personal experience with them, however.

there probably decent excpet they will have little or no resale value on newschooler if you decide to sell them on here but you could easily sell them localy  i bet
also marker brakes are terrible even on there 20 din bindings they break all the time

If you do spins and fall a lot or fall a lot in general you will break them. It really doesn't matter how much you way. When I was 10 I had a pair of regular 1000 and broke them 3 time from January to the end of the season. At that time I was only doing 3's so I don't recomend to anyone that freeskis the Marker binding

i bought the Marker 12.0 Free. which i belive is the all metal version of what your looking at. So in theory, it would be better than what you looking at, but i broke those bindings 8 times and spent more money fixing them then buying them. Marker makes badass race bindings, but other than the duke/jesters their freestyle bindings suck

Well I've never had marker bindings but I would never buy them based on their less than stellar reputation.
