Descision made. Rossi FKS140L

[Steezy_me123]

I'm putting a pare of FKS 140's on my LIBtech NAS jibs. Unless anyone has a better suggestion, or a horror story to tell about them. From what i hear their tanks though.

good choice, I've never heard anybody say anything bad about fks.

 

[no_steeze]

pare? really?

 

[Steezy_me123]

not gonna lie, it was like 130 in the morning. and i'd just got home after a long fucking shift ,

they don't have the steel toe piece, but they should be pretty reliable. if you want the steel you'll have to step to the 180's.

 

[Malcolm]

yeah i dont get why hed need to remove the outer covering or skin of with a knife or similar instrument from FKS 140s.

 

[fouldsys]

a better idea would be the 180s or some 155s. these should suffice though.

 

[MarkieR]

yeah that's what was nice about the 155s. you got the awesome steel toe piece and you also got a more normal and versatile din range. now with the new ones you have to get the 10-18 bindings if you want the steel toe. there are plenty of people who could use the steel toe and have no business using a 10-18 binding. it would have been smart for them to make the 140's available with the steel toe piece.

as great as 18 din bindings are, i kinda like not destroying my knees when i bail
