Hi NS!

I'm buying a pair of 166 line afterbangs. First of all, which bindings should i put on there? I'll just be in the park and groomers ( no touring). Also, I'm kind of looking for bindings in the price range of $100-$150.
Finally, Where should I mount them True center?

Thanks guys and girls +k to any helpful responses!

Marker, Rossi, or Look for brands

Ive owned a pair of all 3

Look px12 jibs are nice
Marker jesters or squires are also quality
and getting a little up there in price is the Rossi FKS but they are bombproof and will last forever

Without knowing your height or weight I'd say marker griffons or look px12s. Actually you could probably find the rocky versions real cheap and it's the same binding. As far as mount I'd say dead center for strictly park or -2 for a little more all mountain.

In that case I'd say marker Griffs but if you can't find em in your budget range look at those px12s

The size is brake width. Make sure if your skis are 85mm under foot you get something close to that in brake width. Not as wide can be stretched to fit your ski but too wide and you'll be catching your brakes riding switch. Make sense?
