Daymakers?

I've been looking at them too. Looks like they'd be good for short sidecountry tours but a pain in the ass on anything that involves changing from touring to bootpacking multiple times.

Used them quite a bit this season. Did short tours, did over-nighters. I have them mated to some Look Pivot 18's on some Rossignol Black Ops. If you don't mind the weight they are the shit. I would recommend them if you like your alpine setup. I'm more often than not looking for hits while tour, or stopping to build them. The Daymakers are a great addition to anyone's setup. I used Salomon Guardians for several season before switching to the Daymakers. The Guardians were a clunky sketch of plastic and cheap metal.

This is just my opinion, but given the history of BCA's alpine trekkers I'd be wary of these. I'm not a huge fan of frame bindings by any stretch - but I do feel more inclined to trust their history over a newly offered adapter. I've skied dukes and guardians, and yeah - the stack height isn't ideal, but I'm never worried about them on the up or down. Generally speaking, the more moving parts in a design, the greater chance of experiencing a failure - these adapters cost damn near the same as a pair of AT Frame bindings so that would be my first choice.

BCA's trekkers were a joke at best, hence the moniker "daywreckers". The DayMakers are not the same flimsy plastic on metal bullshit BCA brought into the world.
The DayMakers creators are engineers man, there's a credible amount of science that helped improve this design.
I was on the Salomon Guardian for 4 years, broke two pair right under the pivot point, grated I was doing far more than going up and turn farming down. I beat the shit out of my gear, and I expect it to hold up. I've put the DayMakers through the ringer and at the end of the day I want my Pivot18's on my feet and not some sub par touring binding offering.

Matter of opinions of course, I ski heavy, giant shit. Therefore an extra 800 grams in my backpack isn't really anything of a bother.
