Bandit thanks again.. I cant say im a freerider as such, merely a skier who is wanting to ski piste but with the option of skiing powder when the time suits but also being able to do so without worrying that my ski isn't upto the job.
My current carving ski (salomon aero x) is a good piste ski but in april when i was in Tignes everytime i ventured into the deeper stuff or hit the crud towards the end of the day it was all over the place, either sinking or being knocked off line. Ill certainly check these bindings out, if there are any other alternatives you can think of similar then id also be happy to hear about those.. :D |

TBH just reading your replies makes me realise how little i knew about bindings. Im not going to be able to try all the different options before deciding on a pair, id think thats pretty much impossible.
For an advanced intermediate skier looking to gain a better skiing style in powder and build more confidence all over the mountain, i think i need to advised and steered in the direction of "whats going to be the best option for improving me on the skis/terrain i will ski" |

Thanks Bandit for taking the time to reply, This has given me a few different options to look at...
I didnt realise how much a specialist pair of bindings cost tbh. Now i need to find a pair that will be ideally suited to the skis i want....hmm this could take some research... ) |

Ok so i understand how skis can vary from make and model depending on width etc. What i dont understand is how bindings differ so much. Please can anyone explain what the main differences are with Bindings and what should i be looking for?
I am currently looking at buying either the scott Neo or Scott crusade all mountain skis. Thanks |
