^haha my markers just completely snapped when i still this 180 off a box, those things were so shitty i had them cranked to the highest possible din setting and they still came off, the funny thing is i had been hitting huge air all day and they had survived and then the whole thing cracks just from doing a 180 off a 4 foot box on my last run down since it was getting to dark to see, The binding snapped and the brake fell off and the my public enemy ski went barrelin down the mountain i looked for hella long and finally found it in a tree, never get markers i almost lost my brand new skis from thos pieces of shit

Salomons are too flimsy in my experience (I should never have tried jibbing or skiing hard on s810s anyhow). I havent skied markers but most people with a lot of experience really dislike them. Im now a firm believer in looks, they only seem to pop off when you are going to injure yourself, which is what bindings should serve to do. If you can get a hold of some salomon s900s I think (higher din, 5-14 or 16 I believe), you will probably be happy.

To Sid-vicious up there. You wonder why your binding broke? Its because you cranked the Din up all the way. Thats uber-bad for bindings.

'It was probably the most improved park in north america last year. That's mostly due to us getting up at fucking 8 am everyday and raking like monkeys, untill we were to baked to talk. Every now and then some texan would eat shit and it would be funny and we would call ski patrol on our radios. we would steal food from the base and cook it on our grill, then heckle people on the lift with our mega phone while we played frisbee across the run. and took naps behind the shack in the most exclusive hut on the mountain. o christ, best winter ever.'

get Look, don't get Salomon. Salomon suck, they're a pain to get into and they release alot when you spin really hard etc...
