Marker Baron vs. Marker Duke
I ski a lot at the resorts ( pretty much exclusively at Alta / Snowbird ), but am looking for a binding with the option of doing a little touring. So far, I've gathered that the Dukes are pretty well bombproof which is awesome. However, the barons are a little lighter. Weight isn't a huge issue, but I've got moderately heavy skis ( 183 cm ) Volkl Katanas and I'm just wondering if I can get away with most anything with the Marker Barons, or would people here would recommend the Dukes hands down? I'm 5'9" 175 - 180 and don't ride parks much if at all. I'll drop a few cliffs here and there and carve fairly aggressively. Which one should I get?
Thanks.

If you want a light touring binding buy something else.

SEARCH!!! There is another thread, with exactly this title, started by another JONG f--k fewer than 30 days ago.
Conclusion: just pony up and buy the Dukes.

listen you degenerate, atheist, commie scumbag
if you don't start using the search function I'm going to kick your sorry commie asswe are rapidly approaching a moment of truth both for ourselves as human beings and for the life of our nation. Now, truth is not always a pleasant thing. But it is necessary now to make a choice, to choose between two admittedly regrettable, but nevertheless *distinguishable*, postwar environments: one where you got twenty million people killed, and the other where you got a hundred and fifty million people killed.

Go with the Barons and save a 100 bucks and 100 grams, they will be fine for what you are doing.

No DIN will be high enough for you while I'm stomping your guts out, JONG!
