Dont cheap out on bindings.

Get fks 155 or 185

Sth16 or 916, if you can find it.

Good bindings and cheap arent in the same category.

if you are willing to drop the dough some fks 155 or 180s would be ideal. you are a heavier guy and shouldnt cheap out on some bindings with a mostly plastic housing. that spells trouble for heavier people such as you and i. i got some pretty minty fks 180s for 225 shipped on here. look around for some deals.

You can usually pick up Head/4Frnt/Tyrolia 15/18 DIN bindings for fairly cheap. One of the most reliable biding designs out there.

Definitely fks or look pivot (same binding)They will last forever. I have had really bad luck with Salomon bindings but i have heard good things about them.

peak 18, fks 155 or 185.  salomons have never had as much retention, and they fall apart on me way too much.  jesters have good retention, but get destroyed.
