ColinBa2any binding but marker and the rossi/look px12
ColinBa2any binding but marker and the rossi/look px12
ColinBa2also an expensive binding will have durability be made of all metal. the din goes higher than 12. the rotational force to pop out. basically a good binding will save your knees
CaptTurnerI have both and have skied them both hard and have had no trouble. You just have to take care of your stuff.
BcarpizoDo you think it is worth buying an expensive binding?
ColinBa2i just dont like marker bindings just my preference. but as for the px12 i snapped 2 heel plates and the bindings are so freaking hard to adjust the din (heel piece) and the tear up your pants because for some reason when you land your pants get caught in the binding some how
CaptTurnerI have never blown a heel piece so I can't comment on that, but I do agree that the heel piece din is hard as hell to adjust. Upside you can usually find them for pretty cheap and they are decent bindings to start. Downside they are pretty heavy and bulky, looking back I wish I had bought a lighter binding

i got a pair of mojo15 for $150 shipped and they are the best binding ive skied on
DiabeetoAs far as park skier are concerned, it pretty much comes down to two things:
1) If they keep your knees from blowing out of your legs, it's a good binding.
2) If they last long enough for what you paid, it's a good binding.
I'm sure touring and backcountry skiers are a lot more picky with wight, din settings, release points, and a bunch of other stuff. But when it comes to park, I know they will be destroyed within a year or two so the only thing I really worry about is how reliable they are to release.

BenWhitPX12 is my favorite binding outside of the FKS/Pivot. Never had any issues with it and I've had three pairs. Your pants rip because you are lifting them up when you snap in, or because you are walking around the lodge, lift area, parking lot with them not rolled up. Problem solved. My pants have never magically got stuck on anything.

parkplaygroundI don't know anyone who doesnt have this problem... fks lift up all the time and I have some px jib 14s on my mogul bindings and they shred but they tear up the back of my pants worse than the fks
BenWhitI've honestly never had that problem on any bindings of mine. two or three pairs of PXs and FKS.
shin-bangyea same here. i love my fks. theyre just so perfect if it wasnt such a pain to replace the brakes
