hey NS, i was just looking for some help picking some bindings. i'm a very agressive skiier at 210 lbs, looking to mount on a kung fujas. i'm looking for a binding to do well in the park and pow, and i'm not really wanting to break the bank. my limit is $230ish. thanks for the help

With that price range look for a Look px14/15 or a Rossi Axial140/150. They are the same binding. Both will usually come with wide brakes. Its easy to find a pair for $150-$200. They are strong bindings, a little heavy though.

I'd say FKS, they'll last for a little while also.

ebay/ski swap + metal race bindings = performance, durability, and affordability.

some of the good race bindings are pretty close to indestructible. thats why they are close to 400 new, and thats why its not worth it to buy them new. you can pick up an a pair of sally 916s or FKS/Pivots for well within that price range. sure, they might be a little scratched up, but they are metal, and dont take physical damage when the paint gets scratches, unlike plastic, which gets chunked out.

if you wanna stay new, the PX 15/18s are burly, as are tyrolia PEAKs. really, just stay away from anything with large structural plastic bits. Jesters are OK bindings, but the performance is drastically hyped up, they really are nothing special, and are way to expensive for how they are built.
