Should I Mount the FKS 140 or the STH 13 on my CT 2.0s?

What are the major differences?

What are your experiences with either one of these bindings?

I going to be riding 33%/33%/33% (piste,pow,park)
 
I found that the SEARCHBARYOUFUCKINGMORON binding allowed me to crank my dins in a way that stroked my ego and my cock, just the way I like it.
 
Geez... No wonder you have such low karma/post ratio... In case you were wondering I saved that last 1%(33/33/33) to hopefully ride you to the search results of "FKS 140 or STH 13"... Nothing useful... I hate users that post this kind of shit... Thats something new guys do because they think they will fit in... So stop...

I seriously don't know why people get so mad when they see post that they (think) they have seen before...
 
They're both good bindings. Realistically, bindings don't make any difference. Mount whatever you want guarantee you won't be able to tell the difference.

Thanks man I can get the STH 13 with the ski for around $900 which is pretty cheap where I live :) the FKS would make it $977
 
STH are better. More adjustment. Better warranties if buyin from shop. Also elasticity is a win. Would highly recommend STH, I love mine. And if you can get them for cheaper do it.
 
I have STH on most of my skis and love them. From what I have heard, STH are easier than FKS to put back on in pow if they release. While I have never had any issue putting my STHs back on, I haven't skied FKSs so I am just going off of what I have heard multiple times. Both are great bindings.

tl;dr both are good, get STH
 
Both are great binders, sth 13s will be a easier step in especially in pow. Also if you would have searched "what binding" you probably could have found something but its fine. IMO in this case get the sth 13s, you'll be fine
 
I think its funny looking at the poll results then scrolling down and looking at the replies. I'm guessing a lot the votes for FKS came from 12 year olds who think FKS is god's gift to skiing but can't tell us why.

I've skied both, but liked STH way more. I love the wide toe, elasticity is great.

FKS don't feel to hold as well, I'm not sure what it was, I just didn't like them as much. They didn't feel wide enough. Also the brakes have issues and are a bitch to fix.

Go STH

I woukd only say the brakes suck because they blow to replace, but it's pretty rare to break em. I had a pair of squires and liked the step in. I now have a pair of pivots and attack 13s and like the wide toe better in the attacks. I do I like the simplicity of the attack but if I'm riding all park I'd go pivots. For his case, STH all the way. If I do anything else other than park I would go sth or attacks. Way 3asier to step in and I like the wider toe peice.

no one's mad, but learn to use the forum a little bit better. My rough count had 7 threads in just the last three pages with discussion of sth or pivot/fks. The topic has been discussed ad nauseam all over the internet and plenty of its fair share on this site.

nothing useful is making another thread on a topic that has been beat to death.

I've owned both and think both are great. At the moment all of the skis in my quiver have salomon bindings on them but there are plenty of people that are the exact opposite. I thought pivots were excellent for jibbing around the mountain on a playful pair of skis. The elasticity was noticeable, I ran my DINs lower than my sth. Pivots are a pain to step into with any type of ice/snow buildup on your bootsoles and I bootpack often. None of this is new information.
