So I'm looking for some new bindings, they're gonna be mounted on 171 thalls and used for park. I need em to be durable and I'm trying to find some that are real light, any suggestions? I had sth12s before but I had some problems with those... oh and I only weigh like 130
 
Head Mojo 12s are very light and I have had no durability issues with them after a season and I weigh 30lbs heavier than you.
 
Salomon makes some of the lightest bindings, their warranty is 5 years and very good too.
 
never had good luck with solly bindings, i would recomend fks 12s or tryolas (probably go with these)
 
My pipe cleaners are pretty light skis i would have to say not the lightest but up there, and FKS make them seem pretty dam heavy, but they are durable as hell.
 
which bindings specifically? cause like alkyy I've also had problems with sollys (sth12s)... and yeah, I heard that fks' were kind of heavy? also, aren't the mojos made by tyrolia?
 
Salomon makes the shittiest bindings in the world ther than: sth 16 (different from 12/14) and the old s series/ other old ones I can't name now
 
I don't know why this rumor is going around. They are the lightest metal binding available. The metal itself is heaver, but compared to the px series, the binding assembly is more minimal and simple, so it weighs about the same.
 
I meant the 12 DIN plastic bindings; maybe px isn't the right name?

Anyway, metal is obviously heavier than plastic, but there's less material, so it weighs about as much as a burly p12 Look binding. Every other metal binding available will be at least twice that weight.
 
all bindings have brake issues....

but the FKS/Pivot bindings have by far the most durable brakes ever. also the most durable binding ever as a whole.
 
salomon and rossi make some nice light bindings. I have the Salomon S10's the Z10 or whatever they renamed the S10 to on my skis.
 
i have them and love them ridiculous amounts!! i have had them since the dtart of the season and have had no issues!!! the lightest binding on the market and super durable (so far for me at least). definitely a good investment

i had the Z10s on my first pair of twin tips. i dont even have a problem admitting i didnt ski those things hard at all. and the tracks on both of them exploded.

they are super super light, but IMO if you want something to last then look elsewhere.

FKS FTW my older FKS and AR6 combo is plenty light and has taken way more abuse and shows far less wear and tear then the z10s could ever imagine. the track is just a plastic POS
 
But the warranty sucks, if you use them for freeskiing, even the ones designed to do so, it voids the warranty. I broke 7 heel plates on sth12s and never got anything out of them, I just took old heel plates off old rental skis.

I recommend Marker Griffons if you're looking for lightness, they are by far the lightest binding on the market, and so solid.
