Hey,
i bought some 179 PE's the other day and will be wanting to buy some bindings for them soon. As i live in the UK the choice is rather limited- might even want to buy from the US depending on shipping. I want lightish bindings as the skis arnt the lightest, but also not some that will break easy because im a student.... Anyway heres whats available:
- Salomon S912Ti 1080 229.623 USD
- Salomon S912 PE2 212.070 USD
- Salomon S810 AXE+ 126.964 USD
- Rossignol Power 100 176.443 USD
- Rossigol Power 100 PRO 177.330 USD
- Rossignol Power 100 T-PL/STD 195.078 USD
- Rossignol Power 120 T-Plate WB 248.305 USD
- Rossignol Power 95 TI 195.097 USD
Oh and probly key to it all: the PE's i bought have already been drilled (2nd hand, used a few days) with some salomon bindings (700 or something.. cant remember) so im not sure if the drilling pattern is the same. If it is then the salomon ones will maybe go on without having to redrill and fill in the old holes.
And yeah i know, UK prices suck.

The S700 hole pattern is different from all Salomon bindings you're considering, so re-drilling is your only option. That being said, the S912TI is what I used to ride. The 912 PE has a riser, and is much heavier. The 810 is a shitty binding, don't buy it.
The rossi power 100 bindings all go up to DIN 10, which might not be enough for you. That's why they're less expensive. Of all the rossi bindings you've listed, I'd get the power 120, nice DIN range, not too heavy, good binding.
Or, you could just wait until Line bindings come out, which is what I'm riding next season.
Freezy deletes all my posts because he doesn't like me, so I suggest you message him to make him stop.

I have power 100's and they're sweet, I can't say whether they are heavy or not because i havn't used anything else. but most people seem to have no probs with their Look/Rossingol bindings!

hey,
can someone give me an idea of weights > DIN settings generally?
here in the uk we work in stone so i doubt ul understand but im 11.5-12 stone...
sorry got it wrong they are:
'salomon equipe 900 bindings on which are the 8 hole per binding and were drilled for a 315 sole length boot'
Whens the line binding coming out?
cheers
