Hello! I bought armada al dente and today they arrived. I haven't bought bindings yet, because i got one pair from my old skis. So, is it better to buy new bindings or use my old? Also tell me what is differnce between best bindings to a simple one.
PS: i'll post my bindings photo down there.
Thanks in advance.

I wouldn't use those bindings they're so old and there are far superior bindings around now.
At your height and weight I would recommend Rossignol Axial2 120's, Tyrolia Attack 13's, or Salomon STH2 WTR 13's. The STH2's are the best of those three bindings and if you can afford them then I would go for them, however if they're out of your budget the other two bindings are also great options and are cheaper.
I'd avoid FKS/Pivots because they're expensive, have very little adjustment, and brakes are extremely expensive and hard to replace plus they're fragile.

Those bindings look like a knee injury waiting to happen. I would recommend the sth 12 or fks 120. Both are quite solid and should last forever. I have the sth 12's on my al dentes and they're great. Always let me out at the right without any prereleasing.

Putting those on new skis would be like putting 30 year old icing on a perfectly good cake
