A good backyard binding?

alright, so this year i bought a new pair of skis and im going to put the bindings that are on my old skis on them because their pretty nice.  i think im gonna keep using my old skis for screwing around in my back yard and stuff but i dont really want to go all out and get a $120 or whatever binding for them. sooo, what would be a semi cheap binding that would still be decent to use? i dont really care too much what they look like and im thinking in the $50-$80 range maybe.

i was just gonna get the cheapest risers that went up to like 11 din that i could find but im not too sure. thanks a lot to any replies

go to a local ski awap or a store and ask them, or buy some from an outlet online, your not going to get a really good binding for 50 dolars

if the bindings keep the skis on your feet for a 3 second run they have done their job... go to a thrift store and get the newest bindings they have + a pair of sick vintage skis for like 7 bucks....

hopefully you can find a pair better than that get some bindings that are several years and have like a din of 11 and crank them all the way up

Take an old pair of high top shoes and glue them to your skis. that way you can just jump in and out. its also conferable.
