ive been wondering the same thing, and about boots too. They're not gunna use look bindings or lange boots or something cuz those are owned by another ski company. So what do people like tanner hall use for bindings an boots?

depends. sometimes the company has contacts and gets them bindings. also the riders might be sponsored by other companies or shops

Some of us have individual boot/binding sponsors as well. For example, when JR Martinez rode for K2, he used Technica boots.

Since I have been on Liberty, I got Surefoot as a boot sponsor, and I ride on Lange/Look.

Most of the riders will use Look bindings, however now that the pivot is gone, you will probably see a lot of riders on either old pivot bindings or the new Vist system that both Liberty and 4Frnt are using. It is supposed to be the best system out now that the Look binding no longer pivots.

Go with what is comfortable for you!

^^^I'm pretty sure Tanner uses Dalbello Krypton boots, and Rossignol FKS bindings.

Yeah, I know it's like this in a lot of sports. Motocross is the same way. Companies like Fox Racing may sponser a rider and the rider may not choose to wear helmets or boots by Fox Racing. Ricky Charmichael, for example, wears all of his clothing by Fox Racing but wears Alpinestars boots.

I think it's the same way with skiing. As long as a company is getting recognition for supporting an athlete...they're happy.

with k2, they own volkl and technica, and maybe marker, so it is no suprise that the team riders use those products
