Binding question!

[mik0tsi]

Ok, so what's the difference in Atomic ffg 12, Salomon sth 12 oversize and Salomon z12.

I'm 125lbs and i ride semi aggressive park and all-mountain. Max. 40footers.

Price isn't the question because i can get them all at pretty much same price.

Have you tried, say, reading the manufactures website and comparing them side by side, because thats where you should start before making threads.

Colors. They come in different colors.

I've read all reviews and manufacters websites before this.

I found something that you should buy the driver version, and that some kind of Z toe pieces suck but i'm not sure about all those. All the answers on old threads were mixed up and i just want to know simply wich one of these is the best to buy.

Also does griffon compare with those?

Sry that the first post was so gaperish.

i had Look PX 12s on my old dynastar big troubles when i was younger. I'd say that i skied them fairly aggressively and i never had any issues with the bindings. They were pretty light too

whats the difference on that Look px12 and this:http://goo.gl/XdKsE look px12 bindings?

They look different so are they old and new version?

that link you provided was the NX12 which has a different heel piece

Ok the ffg 12 and z12 are the same binding. Good for recreational use not really for hard park use. The sth12 oversize uses a beefed up version of the z toe but the same heel as the sth 12/14 and 16. Of the three it's the best. But the sth 12 driver is better still. It uses the same heel as the sth 12 os but has the driver toe the same as the 14 and 16. Next season all this changes. There will still be the sth 12 os but then there will be the sth2 13 an 16.

Let me know if you have any other questions about bindings.

Thanks! Pm'd.

Would griffons be better than sth?
