Chronics sound pretty good based on what type of skiing you do. I dont know anything about the bindings though.

They are sick bindings, heavy, but sick. 25mm of elastic travel means they stay on when you want, and come of only when you need them to.

120s are kinda heavy but are pretty much bulletproof.

the binding are good trust me.  i use last years.  they really arent that heavy, im 5'7 and 120 pounds and i do fine on the east coast with them.  if you do feel they are heavy, work out your quads.

i ski the same exact combo u have and i wouldnt have it any other way the chronics ski amazing on grommers and can handle the small powder patches that the midwest / east coast can see. on jumps they feel great and landings are soft but also steady because of the medium flex of the ski. for rails they feel bulkier than a pair of disorderlys or invaders but they can do them that said it may just be my skill on they rails but they are definately worth it. the 120s are very sturdy and have not had a single early release for me they are heavy and should be paired with a light high quality boot because they make these skis unsteady on rails with the salomon foils which are an unbeliveably heavy boot compaired to most freestyle boots

the only problem with that is ate the edges of the laminate where the side wall and the  graphic meet i had a shit load of chicping on the first day if u put a coat of clear coat nail polish which u can get from pretty much any girl like a girlfiend or a sister on that edge and it will fix the problem pretty much completely

It would be a legit setup. But if you can find griffons for cheap id slap those on there.
