    Looking to buy new bindings -- suggestions welcome!

    For the first time in a decade I have bought some new planks that require alpine bindings. Suggest something that will fit a 124mm waist ski and where I can crank up the DIN setting to the "rips your knee out".

    Thanks!

    But seriously, this has been covered many times. FKS 180 (same as P18) or 916. Everyone got their own preference; mine's FKS.

    FKS or STH. Personal preference there but my opinion after using both is you can't go wrong with either.

    If you want to go cheap, seems the PX18 is often out there for a deal. This summer I saw them new for $100 with brakes near that width on flee bay. Tyrolia race bindings have a good reputation and are often a bit cheaper.

    why would you want a din binder? just bolt the stiffest race boot directly to the ski and rock on. talk about low stack height.

    Long time Sally guy here, but pretty happy with the Tyrolia/Head stuff - using their Peak 15 DIN bindings (basically the Mojo line), and they're as secure as anything I've ever been on. Seem pretty bomber too. Price point is a lot better than similar Sally clamps, which was part of why I gave them a shot.
    Gravity. It's the law.
