They are identical to atomic/ Salomon Warden which are pretty good if you're not very big.
Use bindings that are appropriate for your weight, height and riding style. If you're 170 lbs +, over 6' and/ or ride aggressively, any 11 DIN binding is probably going to break. If you're not too big and just riding on piste and some park, they will be a good, lightweigth option.
Ideally your bindings should be set near the middle of their DIN range, so if your DINS are at 8-9 or above, you will want bindings that go to a higher setting.

Attack 13s 95mm brake at $135 USD...not too bad for a two minute search. Probably not more that $30 more than the warden 11 and worth every penny.

yeah they're just a rebranded salomon warden, theyre fine for light use but they are 11 din bindings which as a general rule of thumb you want to avoid if you are demanding of your equipment at all

def recommend the attack 13s, their price is so good i can't imagine getting 11 din bindings instead is worth it at all

BIGPOWPAPAWould you suggest 13s over look pivot 14?


they're both excellent bindings. pivot 14s i'd prefer but they're likely going to be significantly more expensive than the Attacks. if that's not an issue i'd say get the pivots, unless you feel super strongly about attacks being lighter and a little closer to the ski

again, though, both are super good bindings. either way you're hyped

Word thank you! I actually found some 14s for cheaper than attacks. Im a new park skier so just tryna learn. I used pivot 18s on my pow skis so I was thinking about the 14s anyway! Thanks again
