Tyrolia makes some very solid bindings. In fact they are one of the larges mfg of bindings in the world, if not the largest. They are huge in Europe and make quite a few OEM's.

They might not be the best looking, but sure do a damn fine job.

I'm sure the money was a factor as well....

Maybe the fact that he's running low on FKS? I mean, they arn't produced anymore. Also, the Mojo 15's are easily some of the most solid bindings out there.

Tyrolias are excellent bindings. Markers on the other hand, suck.

^^ Tyrolia does make 4frnt. 4frnt changed from Vist to Tyrolia for bindings this year and they are much better and more durable

Those Tyrolia bindings are identical to the newer Salomon bindings with the non driver toe. Same heel, same toe release system.

Just because a pro skier is using something doesn't mean he's sponsored by that company.

You think JP is sponsored by Kendama?

Okay, either way, same design and both killer bindings.
I have a set of Mojo 15 and a pair of Foscher X17 and I love them both to bits.

Love me FF17s, release when I'm in trouble, locked on when I'm not.

You can get them for really cheap too!

I dont know if I like them more than my looks, but they are amazing bindings.

fks's and the old look turntables were the best bindings ever made. THATS FACT. but those bindings are becoming indemnified which means that they nobody can "legally" work on them, well u can sign a release form for them and such but still they are  ancient now. Tyrolia is a great company in fact technically speaking they have the second most shock absorbtion before full release, second to new look and rossy bindings. and ontop of all that bindings are required to meet certain specifications as they always have been but the difference between a tyrolia and look will rarly be noticed because they all release so similar. Also when your cranking your dins down to a 14 anyways your not going to come out unless you really eat shit and need to anyways. So a fks on 14 and a tyrolia on 14 are going to fuckin hold you in.

You mean NOT indemnified. And fks are no where close to not being indemnified. They only stopped being made in like, 2005. fkx, the older style of fks are still indemnified, so I think fks are going to be indemnified for a while.

neither do the 15+ din tyrolia/peak/head/4frnt/amplid.

the 12 din ones do but the 15, 17, 18 and 20 din ones do not. It's a good binding, could use some more metal in my opinion, but otherwise a solid piece of equipment.

The DIN 15 and 18 Tyrolia/4FRNT/Head bindings all have the Race Pro Heel, and if you look at the Tyrolia site, they mention nothing about this heel rotating. The Light Diagonal Heel used in the DIN 12 bindings on the other hand, is in fact rotating.

You think JP is sponsered by skis? He's sponsered by Armada skis, not skis themselves. A Kendama is a thing not a company, you can't be sponsored by a thing, unless you are a god.
