Don't just buy the FKS because it looks cool and heaps of pros ride them. What's the point of having an FKS is your din is at 7? Look around find a binding that suits your riding style.

no other bright green bindings though, and we all know that is what matters.

durability, safety, reliablility, looks cool, better performance of the ski, etc. 120 or 140 could be great for op

idk about 7 but different bindings behave very differently. there are lots of pros to FKSs/pivots, my favorite being the travel which leads to me not needing to overcrank my din, and also knowing when im going to come out

i dont care if i was going to only do groomers the rest of my life, i'd still only use pivots. they last forever too. the "youre not even riding a high din why would you need FKS" mentality is misled
