Hello
anyone think that the Salomon guardian 16 15/16 model have any of those early troubles with breaking the metal guiderails?

mostly going to be used as a lift up ski down in pow, but need to have the opportunity to skin up if needed :) and i can get a decent price on guardian`s :)

going to be mounted on my salomon rocker2-108 190 since my STH2 16 is getting mounted onto my NFX lab 176`s :) the 190`s was alittle to burly in the tight forrests of Norway :D

They are solid. I was skiing the new guardian at the end of last season with no issues at all. The first gen did have issues but that has all been sorte now. In my opinion they are the best frame bindin currently so you will enjoy tHem. Enjoy the NFx too that is such a good ski.

thank you for your answer :)
looking forward to feel the snow under my skis again, and foremost I look forward to test the NFX`s dont think I will ever be able to "out perform" these since I am an old "geezer" (32yrs) and already the falling bit of skiing is becoming more and more "dangerous" :D :D

but hey, if I dont try, I wont fail, and I will try for sure, the noobiest goal of all times, learn 360 on skies for the 2016 season

32 is plenty young to still kill it. only thing that will hold you back from stomping 3s this year is thinking that youre old. go git it

ive done 3`s on ramp skates, but that is ages ago, so the movement is "in my body" but never done it with stuff longer then my foot attached :D

but hey presto, the guardian deal fell through the same day as my cousin was at the Biggest ski sale in my region, and he hooke me up with Dukes at over 50% off :)

so now the ski season must start asap :D
