Those are all the same, except the Ti has titanium reinforcement in the heel. Besides that just color scheme differences.

so given the choice between the Axial 120 and 120 Ti, I should just go witthe the 120 because it's cheaper?

are they pretty much the same?

the axial2 120 ti is slightly lighter and stronger than he axial2 120 because it has titanium instead of plastic in certain parts. the scratch 120s have a little shock absorbing pad under the toe and hell pieces, while the axial 2's have lifter plates, which are better for carving, and not as good for park. however if they can be mounted without these plates

Don't get too caught up over the Ti. If it's not much more go for it but it's not a huge deal. I had regular PX12s on my old skis and they were fine. I'm 6'4/80kg and the DIN was up there and they still never let me down.

The bindings for 2009 say SAS on them and not Scratch, however when you open the cases of bindings up they are all labeled as Scracth 120. Got to love the way Rossi loves making things confusing for everyone.
