Looking for some input on this years Faction bindings to be made for 08/09 Faction Skis. The skis are bright already but we are debating even brighter bindings. Does this sound cool or will you all be sick?

I don't like the sound of it.  In my opinions, binding should be black or white. Maybe grey.  Your bindings should not draw attention away from your skis.  Your skis are what should be noticed, bindings are just for keeping you attached.

Dont make them bright, but make them nice solid colors. A nice solid blue, green or red binding that compliments the ski allways looks good so that people know youre not just riding some p.o.s. binding, but also so that it doesnt draw attention away from the ski.

And are you guys using the vist bindings? If so those things rule and i want a pair super bad.

I think white bindings look baller as hell but it shouldn't detract from the skis appearance.

agreed, i think solid colors would be pretty cool.  but all white bindings looks the best IMO.  but i could see maybe a lime green binding looking sick or a neon purple binding.

if the skis are bright, i would go with black bindings if i had a choice between black and white. But if the skis are the same white color as the bindings, i would go with white.

i like the white rossi bindings because they look good on every ski and they arnt so plain and blah like black.  i think like gold bindings would be cool.  or use gold as an accent color. that would look so sick.


these are some of the sickest lookin bindings ive ever seen. (not gold accents or white but still cool)

I think tt would be difficult to design a bright coloured binding that would work as universally with bright skis as black or white does..

To be honest i think you should buy a binding based off performance, color really shouldnt have anything to do with it unless you have to choose between different colors of the same binding

bright colours would be sick, provided they match the skis well. you can never go wrong with all black or all white though.

Thanks for all the input, helpful and not even that sarcastic! Just to let anyone know they are quality bindings we are able to do some custom colors so its not sacrificing performance.

If you dont blow out of them and they feel solid on a ski, dont way more than 300 pounds what are people looking for in bindings?

We'll get it sorted dont you worry anxious skiers

i would say, since alot of people like shiny cool stuff make one pair/style of bindings like neon purple with gold accents, kids/NSers would gobble that stuff like kukaburras for coco puffs, and then make the rest white, with nice little accent colors, like this years salomon sth 12's look very nice with the all white and the spraypaint style of writing, just my 2 cents

What you should do is make the toe peices different colors.  like airblaster and all their different color parts.  say, make one toe peice white, the other red.  one healpeice black and the other green, or something.

I think that would be sick, and it doesnt have to  be bright vibrant colors.
