Cardinal Sin

So I'm writing this like I don't already know the answer, but I also need the ns wisdom. Our lord and savior Emmet at Vishnu dropped the prices and I couldn't resist scooping some wet plus's. Gonna be the local edgelord V rider and those red silk plus graphics had caught my eye since I first saw them this summer. Anyways, will I be committing a cardinal sin by mounting, God forbid, marker griffons on them. Got the Ice Coast blues rn, barely any snow/trails open on my NH mountain that ofc got bought out by Vail. Planning to ski ~25 days also considering the rossi FKS? Heard that they are basically the same thing.

TLDR; Are pivots really worth the upgrade over marker griffons?

If you don't already have the bindings cop attacks or sth2's instead of griffons. But real talk nobody cares what bindings you have

You know what, you guys are right. People won't even see my bindings anyways. My massive XXXXL Adidas trackpants are gonna hide them. I still am wondering if it is worth the upgrade? Do pivots design allow your boot to be closer to the ski? Does that give you any advantage I.E. more control/feel?

Sir, is that solid advice or are you just playin?
As a responsible adult, one would think you would have the best interest of your " client" in mind at all times.
What would a professional ski tech recommend if they were to view a screenshot?

Oh, you say it's just NS? nvm

Wouldn't it be best to do some research as to whether the person is interested?
As the two disciplines are quite different, aren't you projecting your preference onto someone else?
Are you a professional providing a learned option, or not?
Gonna have to check with my Binding Installation Agency. Sir
