I first recommend that you learn to spell M-A-C-H-E-T-E. Then I'd say look/rossi or Salomons. Don't get Tyrolias, they suck, jam up too often, and the DIN settings don't seem to be as accurate as they could/should be.

tyrolias are the best selling binding on the market because they easily release which is good for conventional skiing, but something we freeskiers do not want. therefore, tyrolias would not be my choice. i've got some p12s and scratch 100s if you're interested.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ lizziebeth, that's just stupid. The DIN rating on bindings is a standard measurement of how much force it will take to get a binding to release.

All bindings set on a DIN of 10 will take the same amount of force to release. Please don't make shit up when you don't know what you're talking about. Thanks.

Buy salomon 900 series bindings, they are the lightest, strongest and best all around. I hate everything else, but that's just my oppinion...

did i mention a din setting in my post?? not only does the din setting have an affect on how and when a binding releases but also the way it is constructed to release.

ok i hate to do this but look/ rossi isnt the safest, the toe pieces are ok when there brand new but after some use they become very gripy on the boot and tend to hold you in past the set din,
meaning no prerelease
but you knee's may be a a bit more risk
oh yea if you rode at hood this summer and you have these bindings, take some bike chain grease and butter up the toe piece... it will make them release more consistantly... and of course still hold you in
