i think im in love.


and lolz to people thinking the FKS isnt the hands down champion binding of THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE, yes THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE


unless you want / need a track for adjusting BSL the binding cannot be beat.

You can adjust the heel piece on FKS to fit other BSL's.

It's not good for any binding to be cranked up too high. If you have your DIN at 11, don't buy a 12 DIN binding..

Then get a binding with a proper DIN. DUhhhhh. You should never have to crank the DIN to the top of a Binding's limits.

You must not hike park a lot...the heel pieces are super annoying.

To answer the question about the cables on the new FKS bindings, they changed the DIN range so that you don't get as close to maxing out the DIN (instead of 12 it's now 14, 18 is still 18, but maxing that out is pretty much stupid unless you really know what you're doing), the 15s didn't have that problem, but people for some reason are more afraid of 15 DIN bindings than 14...kinda weird, but also not having a 12 DIN option helps the decision.

As far as sexy skis...how about these:
