Replying to Which binding should I choose?

lukas_chatzi:
hey newschoolers,
wanted to ask for opinions on what binding i should buy. I will buy me some new pairs of armada arv 94 in 178cm. I am 182cm tall and my weigth is around 76kg (167,5lbs) and my riding level is very good I would say. I am skking since I can think more or less but I want to get my first real park/freestyle/freeride setup since I want to get into parking more.
Now I can't decide between the armada strive 14gw (around 100euros), the salomon sth2 16 and the armada strive 16 (both around 250euros).
So you see the 14 is way cheaper but I think it misses some of the metal parts the others have. Thats why i am not sure about the durability with the armada strive 14.
Also if you got other recommendations for other bindings that are not extremely expensive, I'd be happy to know about them
Thanks for every answer.
Two additional questions: What does STH stand for in ski bindings?
Is 178cm ski length good for 182cm body length?
