so i want to get a pair of griffons to go on my 166 armada ar6s.

im pretty much set on them since my skis are kinda big for me (5 foot 5 and 110 pounds) so i need the lightest binding i can so i can make up for the weight.  plus i dont through down crazy shit so im not worried about breaking them

but i am concerned about the play in the toe some people complain about with the griffons. they dont have like that adjustable toe or whatever so certain but few boots do not fit right in the griffon toe peice and have a little room, therefore the boot moves around a little bit in the toe......
is this true? if so what boots?

That ski size is perfect for you. Last year I was 5'5"ish and I skied 171 invaders with ease. You should also eat some more donuts

Oh, sorry for the double post but here is a comparison of binding weights https://www.newschoolers.com/web/forums/readthread/thread_id/399330/

I was just kidding about the donut part

YOU DONT NEED A LIGHT BINDING

really binding weight DOES NOT MATTER unless your touring. get fks 120s, you can get them for like 140 on here, they will last a million times longer then griffons

GEARTRADE DAMNIT

geartrade.com

is overloaded with the dildo heel piece style Look binding under $100 or so.  go to ski bindings>price low to high> a few pages in, wah law~!!  good luck and GT is legit as long as what you are buying is newish(don't get anything with description of used a half season or more, IMO)
