after 4 years i finallly got new skis.

i have been riding tiny 149 k2 juvys.. with marker m900 bindings..
shittyy..

oh and im 5' 8" so yeah, just a little bit small..

so yeah i got some 171 salomon suspects..

what bindings should i get..
before i was thinking the marker griffons or jesters.
but from what i have read, they arent that great..
since like everyone hates on them..

so now i was thinking about getting some Salomon StH 14s..
but my opinions before have been wayy off so yeah, what should I do.

and i have to pay for the bindings myself so around 300$ but yeah around that..

if it matters, on my old pieces of shitt i had my DIN at 6.. but that would pop off easy so yeah..
i need it higher for sure..

so yeah heres everything that probably matters.

skis: 171 salomon suspect
height: 5 foot 8 inches..
weight: bout 130 a little more probably.
old din: 6, but that was too low
price range: about $300..

so yeah what should i get..

Salomon Z12 Ti.  or Marker m11.0.  they fit the ski.

Haha just kidding don't do that.  They suck.   And suspects should be fun if you got a good pair.

I always recommend the same bindings for just about everybody, they justwork.  Tyrolia Peak/mojo 15/Head mojo 15/4frnt deadbolt 15/Fischer/Amplid 15.  They are all Tyrolia Peaks(09) or Mojos(08, small differences).  They are durable and have a great edge to edge feel, low stand height, good din range for anybody(5-15?) and are fairly light.  If you don't want Tyrolias, then soll s912/s914 are great.  THey are a few years old, so post up on TGR about them.  914 Labs(google search, last time they were $149) are close to the same thing, but with more plastic.  4.8 lbs/pair...IMO the lightest binding in it' class.  If still now those...Than STH 16s are great  STH 12s/14s in 09 had the Z toe, so don't get those.  For 2010 the STH 14 has the driver toe so they will work too.  If for some reason you don't want those...than the only other thing I would recommend is FKS series, but I don't like them as much as Soll.  Good luck

I got suspects because I weigh nothing and never have broken anything..
so I dont exactly expect to break themm.
and if I do, i wont be too bummed since I got them for dirt cheap.
andd they are a good ski other than the whole snapping thing.
atleast, so i have been told.
but whatever.. i bought em so yeah.. whatever

okay so it seems like the tyrolia peak 15's are my best option..
is that the best thing for the money?
If I have to spend a little more for a better binding thats chill..
so yeah, anything better than them or nah?
