New Bindings?

So I landed switch off of a rail the other day and my binding/brakes just snapped off. I could probably get new brakes but I don't like the bindings anyways (sometimes they randomly eject when landing switch).

My current bindings are Marker Squires. I'm 160 lbs, 5' 8" And I mostly ski park. I'm looking for something that isn't gonna break/eject me when I hit a big feature or land switch. My skis are 2014 Atomic Punx (waist is 84).
NS, what bindings are good and not insanely pricey?

Yep, time for new bindings.

Pivot 12's would be good for your size. I use them, most of my falls are twisting and they release when neccesary.

Pivot 12 Bindings, Salomon sth2 wtr 13, Marker jesters, and Tyrolia attack 13 bindings would be good options for park bindings. My favorite of those are the pivots.

Look spx are prerry good and you can find them pretty cheap. If you can spend extra money then buy pivots

I'd go with Marker Giffron or Jester so you don't have to redrill.

Marker griffon would be clever so you don't have to redial, but if the skis are on the last season get Pivot 12s, STH2 13s, or attack 13s. I have the attack 13s and pivot 14s and enjoy both a lot

Go do this! Yes the Pivot os a better binding but no point in adding new wholes to a ski and messing up the mount point.
