for me: 8 years... I see no reason to upgrade.. I got a DIN of 14 on my Marker Bindings. I dont see any revolutionary changes in bindings other than fancy pretty graphics... woo f'n hoo!
They are functional and safe. Old.. and they work.. and I rarely see DIN of 14 on anything.
Go for it... tell me I am wrong and why?
I dont need a "I hate marker bindings" debate.

"and they work"
dude, YOU HAVE MARKER BINDINGS!!!
nah, if they work for you, that's sick
last time I bought bindings was when I bought new skis, which was about 7 months ago. I like to keep my old skis around and mounted, so every time I get new skis, I get new bindings

about 8 months ago, but that was because I was fed up with consumer bindings and bought FKS's, I think I'll snag another pair for some pow skis and then hopefully I'll never have to buy bindings again.

I've been on mine for about 4-5 long seasons and I'm with you, but I did change my toe piece last week cause mine was missing pieces and my boot could move inside of the binding, and I just jacked the toe piece off an old pair of skis I had lying around
As long as all the pieces are there, they work, and have the Pivot on the heal piece, I see no reason to change them until it breaks. I find it a waste of money to get new bindings when your old ones work perfectly fine

Last summer, some p12's. 12's serve me perfectly, but if I break em, probably Deadbolts, unless something more solid appears that wont fuck over your ACL.

Two years ago. I have two pairs of Rossi Axial 140s (turntable heel) that I rotate though my rock and park skis, and some Salomon 914 FIS that I use on my pow and everyday skis.

As long as the bindings are safe, use them. No reason to upgrade bindings that you like.

I've gotten two sets of FKS's this season, the most recent of which was about a month ago. I shouldn't be needing anything anytime soon unless the bindings on my AT or rock skis blow up.

i used to do that, but eventually you get to the point where you have extra bindings laying around from retired/broken skis . Like i have 2 sets of Axails laying around waiting for skis, but now that i think of it, i have some new skis to mount on to.

i have some look p18s that i got with my trouble makers 5 years ago and have had them mounted on about 4 different pairs of park skis. i see no need to upgrade until they brake. i am getting marker dukes soon for touring though.

I rocked my solly 912's for 4-5 years and finally retired them this year because one toe piece was having problems. Picked up a pair of deadbolts 412's and love them and hope they last as well.

Every time I get new skis! Bindings are under tension and will break eventually.
My Motherships have Solomons that have DIN of 12
My Karmas have Rossignol with DIN of 14!
I've had a pair of marker and a pair of geze bindings that each blew up at around the 6 to 8 year mark. Literally, springs and pins all over the run, that's why I carry a second pair as backup.

Thanks smart guy, we are all very enlightened by your insight on the matter. I was highlighting it because the author of the freakin thread was asking about bindings that went to 14 FFS! It's called being helpful, fuckstick!
Do you little pencil necks have anything worthwhile to contribute to this site or do you just like sounding retarded? Sick of all you little shitheads!
