and also just riding park. i ski like 80 % park 20 % everything else.

What are the best bindings for withstanding constant butters off everything? I just snapped by binding straight off my ski last weekend from doing a fast butter 3 on my invaders.

but i need a binding that can withstand some all mountain too. but mainly park.

Thanks

I'm STH 16 fan. The STH 14s and 12s are junk though.

I ripped a heelpiece out doing butters too, look for a binding in your din range with a wide/spread out mount pattern, preferably with as many screws as possible. I like the STH 16..

The old ones are crap. Why the hell would you choose those over the new ones.

key is to get your bindings mounted with epoxy, not wood glue. its a bit more of a pain in the ass to remove the screws if you ever need to, but your bindings will never rip out.

and yes, FKS. nothing else really has the elasticity to guarantee you wont be on your face in a hard nose butter.

personal preference man. i personally like my vist/deadbolt 412's so i bought another pair, but i guess i wouldn't suggest them for buttering, like i pop out usually if i try to do a tip stand or anything, but other than that i really like them. i mean faction and liberty are now carrying vist bindings under their name, if you look at t-wall when he first got on amplid all he rocked were vist bindings until amplid started carrying tyrolia bindings. so don't hate on peoples personal preferences. its just what works for you and what doesn't

On Tuesday I picked up this years Deadbolt 18's for 250. I'm soooooo stoked. Probably gonna be mounted on Live Life 2's and much buttering will take place.
