Do you want to use trekkers or get a dedicated touring binding?

 

[Slizger]

I think a touring binding would be a little extreme for my needs.

riding mostly backcountry?

Fks14, griffons, sth14 drivers anything would work good

 

[Slizger]

good point.i would consider a touring binding.i just have not ever used a touring binding so i don't know what to look out for, or expect.

get some marker barons. great beginner touring binding. the DIN goes to 13, perfect for you.

 

[Balto]

you obviously won't be riding "backcountry" or this wouldn't even be a question. learn the difference between backcountry and the trees off to the side of the lift

sth14 drivers, as already stated, also get my vote

 

[blah..]

Sidecountry or Backcountry? Make up your mind. Like Balto said.. If it's just sidecountry once in a while with park as well, I'd recommend my bindings: STH 12, or 14. If you're actually riding backcountry and you have big powder skis and plan on hiking, you should already know that you need a touring binding..
