i was looking at those dynastar jib bindings (exactly the same as the look PX 12's, if you didnt know, just diff colors) and i found them for like 150...that isnt really bad. im going to put them on my new moment ruby's because i ride Looks on everything else.

my question is: the site i found them on gives you the option of adding a 105mm wide brake for 10 bucks, or a 135mm brake for 35 dollars.

can the 105's fit over a 110mm waist with minimal tweaking? it's so much cheaper, plus the 135's might be SO wide that they'd be weird looking and create the ski equivalent of toe-drag that snowboarders get from overhang on their toes and heels. what do yall think?

i might also be hitting up my buddies at the shops for some Looks, but i might still have to order the brakes online, so i need to know the answer to this before i spring for them.

You'll be fine. It will be tight, but it won't require straightening out and bending for a 5mm difference. Just spread them a touch and you're good to go.
