New Bindings Px12's or Griffons?

[will-g]

So my bindings self destructed when i tried to 3 this little roller yesterday.

I am 6'0 150lbs my din is around 7 and I ski mostly park, im not the most aggressive skier. I need a binding that can hold up for a long long time and will be able withstand hard falls.

I have narrowed it down to Px 12's or Griffons. Any other suggestions will be taken and +k for good responses

 

[ONE-UP]

for sure griffons

 

[will-g]

will it be worth the extra money?

 

[amo]

FKS 120's.Ten times better than Griffons or any binding in the PX series.

10/10- I remember reading on here that not all shops have mounting plates or something like that for fks? Should this be a concern since i live in illinois and the shop here sucks

I would bet that you shop has FKS plates. If they cater to racers at all chances are they have them.

 

[will-g]

ok i will call them and see thanks again

 

[Big_Spence]

I don't know if you're referring to calling your shop or Start Haus, but I would do both if I were you just to be sure they have the bindings in stock and your shop has the ability to mount them.
Side note: Even if your shop doesn't have the correct plates, someone there (or even yourself) could mount them freehand. With a little help and a little knowledge it's not hard at all.

Thanks big-spence just ordered the fks!!! im pretty pumped after all of the good things i have heard

Nice man!Pretty confident you'll love em. Vertical release on them is very nice and extremely predictable.
