Some help with bindings...

I realize that there is already a "what binding" thread but this is more of a specialized question, and to be honest it wont get much attention if I post it in that thread.
I'm buying a pair of this year's Line SFBs (11/12) and I'm not quite sure what bindings to get. I've never gotten a pair of fatter skis so I guess my main question is what should I look for break wise? I don't want to spend to much money on bindings because I'll be able to get by just fine for the next few years with a decent pair.
Suggestions?

Just getting it a little closer to the top...
Anyone even have suggestions for brakes? I'm clueless when it comes to bindings

Welll the waist on the ski is 108mm, so I would say get something 110mm or bigger.
Not gonna recommend a binding without height/weight/skiing type.
You can usually buy wider brakes for a lower end binding if needed. but They run about $40. If you're super smart, and the brakes aren't much smaller, you can figure out how to bend them to fit.

I'm 6'3, 175 and a 3.
Any suggestions on what bindings? I need a new pair I'm just really not looking forward to paying 350 for a pair of jesters...

Your best bet would be to look at STH 14/16 drivers, Mojo 15s, Jesters, and FKS/Pivot 14s or 155s. All of these bindings have been on the market for quite some time and it should be easy to find older models or used ones for under 200$. If you want new bindings both the heads and salomons are decently priced online.
