Replying to Dynafit Radical Vs. Salmon Guardian 12
Sup guys, I'm trying to decide what bindings to put on my Moment Bibby 174cm skis. I've heard great things about both bindings but and am stuck on which to get. Realistically, I'll probably be using these as both a BC and resort ski. Ideally, I'd like to be touring on them much more than skiing lifts though.
I'm only 5'2" 115lbs but I ski pretty aggressively (yeah, yeah, /claim). I have the Technica Cochise boot so I can get the tech fittings if I end up with the radicals. I also really like the fact that the Radicals are 1,000 grams lighter than the Guardians but am worried about the durability if I rock them in bounds on the regular. I've heard they're pretty durable, but I'm not sure if the weight savigns are worth it and if I should just go for the new Guardians coming out that are the 12 DINs (only difference is the springs). Also, I don't htink I need the Dynafit Beast because it starts at a DIN of 6, and I usually rock a 6.5-7 DIN depending on the binding.
Thoughts/Opinions???
