so I have a few sets of skis, and a few sets of bindings, now im not sure which pair to put where.

skis: line bacons, blends, anthems, rossi ghettos.

bindings: sth16 (white) tyrolia peak 15 (x2) rossi fks course (geze toe, 15 din) look tt8.0 (plastic fks style turntable)

the sths and peaks have 100 mm brakes, but i can swap them out in my shop for 130s for the bacons. from there, im not sure what to put where, any suggestions? oh, im also debating on picking up another set and putting dukes/naxos on them. still debating on that idea, but ive got time.

yup. and, no reason to really get dukes, unless you are really the weekend warrior he-man type...

if you are going to get touring bindings on one i'd go for the blends.. 100mm skins gonna be cheaper and easier to find than 115s.. plus you dont want to land switch on touring bindings and bacons are the more jibby ski.. Bacon + Sth.. Anthem + Tyrolia.. Ghetto + FKS.. Blend Plus touring bindings/other tyrolias

haha those bacons are my babies. i get the sneaking suspicion that outside of using the ghettos in the pipe, my other skis will see a lot of neglect
