Im interested in getting some new, low cost bindings for my skis and I dont know which of these 2 bindings are better. I can get the Dynastars for about $60 and the Markers for about $95. If anyone has experience with either of these bindings or is educated enough to give me advice Id be very appreciative. Id be using these bindings on either Anthems or Le Comtes if thank is important. Thanks!

yeah ik theyre both pretty bad but theyre better then the old racing race bindings ive had for 2 years. im not sure about the px12s b/c theyre mad heavy. i dont want them to make my skis bricks. my friends have  them on his skis and they are the heavist skis ever

legitimate race bindings are very much better than either of your 2 options.

I'm assuming you mean px12s, not nx12s. Between the two, the px's will work alright until they blow up and the markers will blow up when you click in

nx12 are better. my friend broke his m11 and i kno like 3 people who have the nx 12 and dont have any problems with them. they have basically the same toe as all the other low din look rossi bindings and the heel is lighter than the px12. i know plenty of people who have had problems with the px series. if these are really your only choices id definietly go with the nx12

well the nx12s are now sold out so its now between the px12 jib and the marker 11.0 free bindings. which would be the better choice? ive heard px12s are the heaviest pieces of shit

yes they are heavy, but they arent pure plastic pieces of shit like the markers

get the px 12 unless youre only a 100 lb 12 year old that isnt aggressive on the slopes or in the park

if you ski about 5 times or less a year, the marker 11.0 will be be fine for you though

ok maybe ill get the px12s instead unless i have a better option.

the old bidings i have currently are the marker twincam M44s. Ive broken the toepiece of one of them already but could replace it b/c i have a couple sets of the bindings in my garage.
