i fail

so 1 is broken  and two are twisted like they hang on the ground even if my skis are on my feets. I went twice to get the stopers "fixed" and they always went back to hang on the ground wich sucks a lot. I'm really pissed about them don't get them!

sorry if it wasnt clear but bottom line they suck and after 6 times i rode them i only have 1 stoper that works

this years deadbolts are really nice. I just put them on my alpha 1s and I like them. They are nice and light they seem to hold up well. I have about 10 days on them. I carry them in my store. Ill sell you a set for 140 plus shipping if you want.

False, the new one's are a totally new metal design.

And to the threadmaker, I can get you some for $100.

Pretty solid binding.

Brakes bend and break pretty easy though..

if you are over 130lbs. get the 15 din ones.  The 12's have a pivot heel and are more of a beginner binding and are not as strong as the 15 or 18

yeah i got the 12's i guess i'm not sure but i have the pivote heel thing, what does it actually do? Is it to prevent a knee injury? and i'm like 130 lbs and i'm a pretty good skier, how are they begginer bindings? thanks for help

ps: i only took them cause they were the cheapest lol
