I have the Annex, pretty similar to the pinnacle, with Duke's. I think if you liked the Seth's you will like these. Lots of tip rocker and taper, actually I made a review about them in the review section.

Having done a bit more research I'm now thinking either Movement Apex's or Black Crows Corvus freebird...with Salomon Guardian bindings (should allow me to tour if I need to but otherwise are pretty solid alpine-style bindings from what I hear?).

Does anyone have experience with either of these or similar setups?

Salomon Guardians were pretty high on my list when I was in the very same situation. I ended up going with a true alpine binding for now, but I'm still open to swapping them depending on how much touring I can get in.

For the OP not sure what your budget is, but I have Atomic Backland 109s, which are really awesome so far. I was also heavily considering the Salomon QST 106

Either should be a good option for all-mountain, in the resort, or the occasional touring/backcountry session

Stop looking at the BC corvus freebird if you want to mount a clunky, heavy, always icy salomon guardian on it!

Sacrificing weight by buying light skis, but mounting this heavy fucker on it, is stupid. Get the normal corvus. It will ski way better in crud or icy condition than the freebird corvus cause they re more stable due to more weight and stiffercore. You re saving around 100 bucks too.

btw. frame bindings are outdated. mainly ridden by "S!CK freeriders" in a Phenix, DC, Airblaster or Norrona dress or by a few pros (but those guys are planning to stomp some serious shit on them)

Cast touring, day trecker or pin, sir. If you think pin bindings are weak, check out any recent Hoji clips.

Movement Apex, BC Corvus, maybe take a look at the Armada Invictus 108 or Line Supernatural 108 and similar more directional skis with some tip rocker and early rise in the tail!

I personally own the armada JJ zero and it it's the best ski I have ever owned hands down. It's really light, super playful and fun in any snow conditions. I have them mounted with jesters then I have daymakers for touring so that way I don't have to worry about sacrificing the performance of a ski by putting a touring binding on them. It's the most perfect setup I can think of.

Thanks for all the opinions - after a bunch more research I ended up going for the Black Crows Atris with Salomon Guardians, will report back on what they're like after the first ride!

Seemed like a good all-in-one ski with enough width underfoot yet a decent enough turn radius and skiability on groomers.
