Hey I am looking for some binding for my new skis and I was interested in a pair of binding I have seen in a few videos, but I am not sure which ones they are. Does anyone know? Here is an example one of the skiers has them.

you can also check pivot 18 (same thing) or fks 14 since you probably dont need a din 18 binding.

I'm not buying bindings based on color fyi, I was attracted to these bindings and then was asking which bindings they were. Now I am asking for help on bindings that are similar to these binding. Also, are these binding very heavy? The last few pairs of bindings I have owned have been to heavy for my liking.

Let me refase my question, what would be a lightweight durable all mountain binding that is under 200 dollars and is 90mm brake since that is what my skis are?

Maybe consider a pair of Look px12s? Decent bindings that won't hurt your wallet too much. I've had several pairs and haven't had any notable problems.

If you want the orange ones, check out the fks 14. Still not the cheapest, but they are quality bindings you will have for a long time. The 18 din version is probably a bit overkill.

Alright thank you, yeah the fks 14 are tempting and will 90mm breaks fit on 90mm skis or will be the same size? Sorry for the noob question.

Look for some used fks 140s or 155s, salomon sth 14/12 drivers, or if you aren't in the habit of exploding bindings, marker griffons. Just check out the sticky at the top of the gear talk form talking about binding choice.
