Im kind of just trying to figure out a price to offer these bindings to a local fellow skier but if anyone has any sweet trades im looking for either another turntable binding in the 14 to 16 din range or maby some deadbolts, or any other worthy bindings in the 14-16 din range.

These FKS 185 Freerides are brand new with a factory wide brake installed at the shop.

What would a fair price be for both me and the other person? Thanks
 
Here are his pictures from a while back.

They look like they are in great shape. Currently, FKS 185's are retailing for 250$, and you have wide brakes. Anywhere from 220-260 would be pretty fair.
 
"im looking for either another turntable binding in the 14 to 16 din range"

why do you want to get rid of these then?

however, I would buy the wide bindings off of you, and send you some regular ones if that is possible.
 
i just think that these bindings are a little overboard for me...im 155 lbs 5'8" with a 27.5 boot sole. I ski very aggressivly however. Do you think these bindings would work for me? Im looking for some opinions.
 
They are pretty gnarly. If you're gonna put your din on 8 on the other bindings, just keep these. It's a myth for Rossi bindings that you want your din to be in the middle. You can go get a PX 12, and put it on 9, and it would be the same as putting the P18's on 9. If you rock a din at like 7 or below sell these shits. They're way sick though.
 
get the 155s...i had the same options, keep the 185s or trade them for 155s with cash, i think 185s a way burly
 
yeah i was kinda thinking about the 155's. Although i cranked my bindings to 10 last season so these would probably work if i want them to. Am i correct when i say that these dont have vertical realese where as the smaller ones do?
 
i just measured them and they are just over 110mm. Probably around 112. Im not possitive but im thinking you could bend them to reach at least 115 without sacracifing any structural integrity becuase it would only be approximently 3mm of bending.
 
i tought solly were making a burly 14 din binding, i might be wrong but I was pretty sure untiol i saw this thread.

get some 916....

heavy burly, indestructible and safer then the fks.

your abut the same as i am, i ride at 13 but i diont care much about fucking my knees since i bleive loosing my skis means more chances of tomahawking soi like ridign hight din.

you shouldbe ok at 111 if you ride really agressivly with everything you said.

i might be wrong by .5 or something since I havent checked all theose charts for a while now.
