they just weigh you down, like boots and skis, in fact if you wanna bust mad spins go for no skis. skis are going the way of poles !

quick question:  DIN of ten, bindings do the squeaking act.

ten is their max.  160 lbs.  sucky bindings though, four year old markers.

you probably shouldn't ride ride your bindings maxed out... they will release very inconsistently, especially if you're using markers in the park. i'd probably cop some new bindings, you can find some pretty good deals around this time of year.

never max out the DIN setting on a binding. Especially if you're 160 lbs and riding 10 DINs.

yes i would have to say bindings do in fact matter..... example: i have rossignol axial 110s and the toe piece area turned completely around double ejecting during a frontflip but wernt broken.... if i had race bindings or recreational bindings without this feature, the toe piece would have broken right off.

bindings matter.

Do you like your old bindings? Do you have problems with them coming off when you don't think they should? Do you have problems with them clinging to your boot when you think they shouldn't? That's the only thing that's annoying about shitty bindings, so if you don't have that problem, keep your old ones. Otherwise, get new ones. I can't believe no one has posted that yet.
