Well, after checking all the shops i can reach im thinking on those two (well actually three) bindings.
As ive already said, Rossi FKS 155 (seemed like new, thou cant tell for sure), Head Mojo 15 aaand Tyrolia Peak 15. Well Peak is pretty much similar to Mojo except for diagonal heel, i think. So ive narrowed it to Rossi vs Head.
I honestly just want a safe binding to replace my exploded Look's (naah due to production defect =)) ), as im mainly a bicycle downhill racer and using skis just for fun, so i just need my knees to be..weell atleast OK =) Ive heard loooads of great things about Rossis, thou heard some good 'bout Mojo..
Sooo any advice here for me? Ah, they both cost the same out here, so its not the "get whatever is cheaper" thing. =)

Ah, forgot. Was kinda shocked seeing T-Hall on Mojos too (DEW Tour 1 Superpipe), maybe they are just as good as FKS?.. Thats why im a bit umm.. stuck )

Do you need a 15 DIN binding if you are just 'using skis for fun' ?

i would go with the fks 155- id say there some of the best bindings out there and are hard to come by- especially new- the turntable heal piece makes it one one the smoothest releasing bindings around and fks bindings are bomb proof- itll last a long time and work really well- din that goes up up 15 will definitely work out unless you doing crazy shit or heavy as fuck ive seen people who have stash up on these binding because they love them so much

i really hope a company brings turntable heel pieces back... but id say definitely go for the fks

2 Silence  => No, i dont need the 15din specifically. But i dont need 4din either since im 200lbs guy =) and with pretty equal weight i think the 15din bindings are a lil' better i.e. will last longer with less problems.

I love my FKS 155's they are super durable and i never release when i dont need to, the only problem i have is the brakes bending so on one ski my brakes are bent up but they still work fine
