I’m interested in getting those 200+ Skis that were used a while back. The bindings weird me out tho will my boot still fit them?

No shop will touch the bindings due to their age. If you fall and torque a knee it’s no ones fault but your own. If you absolutely have to own a pair, buy some that look like they’re in good condition and buy modern bindings for them (which is just as dumb of an idea) so that techs can actually mount and work on them

Do you have regular alpine DIN soles, not GripWalk or anything? If so the bindings should work but I would not recommend skiing on them.

Maybe for a few runs in the spring just for fun?
