Anyone have experience with that binding? i can get a pair for 195$, so its a really good deal. I like going fast and hucking cliffs, they will also be used alot inbounds. Should i go for it ? i'll mount them on my jj's...

i don't own a pair but we get a lot of broken ones come through the shop for warranty. they may be light but they sit high off the ski, create a massive dead spot and break easily.
if i was you i would look at either a duke/baron or the guardian. there more robust and have better down hill performance

I really wouldn't go with Fritschi Freeride Pros, in my opinion they are obsolete. Marker F12s are lighter, more durable and ski better (lower stack height and wider pattern on the EPF models). The only two slight advantages they have over Markers is the pivot point which tours slightly better, -however having toured on both this isn't hugely noticeable, and most decent huts here in Europe carry Fritschi spares. To be honest I don't really understand how they've managed to remain relatively popular, yet at least where I spend most of my time touring, I see more fritschis than any other type of AT bindings.

I would definitely not recommend these for your style. Look more at the touring alpine bindings Duke/Barron, Guardian or Adrenaline
