I really like them, they are super light and even for resort slack country they have been bomb proof.

Nothing at all. I have been blown away by their stability. I have some bents mounted with dynastar px 18's and they have a very similar hold.

The other day I was sending a 25 by 25 and they were super solid underfoot. The ski tour mode is really easy to swap over and when you clip into them you can tell they are designed to take a beating.

Yeah it's pretty heavy but most of the weight in centred right under foot so they ski really well. Luckily I'm also a pretty big guy. 6'4 200 pounds so I don't mind a little beefier of a set up :)
