Need to pick bindings for a K2 Seth 169! I'm 125 pounds DIN 8-9. Will be used for everything except for park skiing but mostly powder and drops.. Possibly Look Px12 Ti ? I need something light but solid.. Since i will have to carry the bastards while i climb..

The PX12 would be a great binding. Look also maybe into the new STH12 from Salomon if u can get your hands on them. I strapped a 916 on mine (heavier guy) and I like the release of the Salomon better for deep snow (personal preference). Hope this helps

I'm pretty sure the STH 12 are lighter than the px12 ti.

Goddamnit why the fuck do people keep telling everyone to get p18 & FK185 bindings.  This kid is light, there is no way he needs more than a 12 din binding, maybe a 14 o5 15, but there is no fucking way in hell he needs a P18.  P18's or any 18 DIN bindings are for people who can't afford to lose a ski under any circumstances, people like Seth, not some kid who weighs under 150 lbs.

Get px12 jibs, STH12's, or even 4frnt deadbolt's. 
Personally I'd recomend the Px12 jibs, I used them all last year on my Fujatives for park and they were great.

Yeah i have PX12 Ti Jibs on my AR6 for park, just didn't know what they'd be like for all mountain.. I might get the PX12 Ti with the lifter for BC skiing.. not that i'm annoyed but i ain't a kid i'm 20 in a week just a skinny bastard.. ;-)

relax young skywalker. i said fks120 first. which is probably the best binding for someone really lightweight- safer toe release and lower din settings plus durable as hell.

Px12 sounds perfect. Run with that.
