I just got some new Tom Wallisch Pros (178) and now I need some bindings. I’m 6ft, 145 lb. I ski like a 8 din currently. What bindings should I get if 100% of my riding on these skis will be in the park? I also want something that’s light weight. I’m looking into the Marker griffon 13id since it’s what I currently use and I have never had any issues with them. But just curious if there is any better options out there for me?

teabagI also use griffons and I’m heavier than you and also have zero problems, ever. You’re pretty light so you prob don’t need any ”better” bindings but I know people are gonna tell you that attack 13 or pivots would be good, I have no experience with those.
I have attack 13s and theyre fine, the paint chips real easily but whatever. Havent gone airborne cody laplante style yet and dont plan on it

Griffons are a hair lighter than th eother two, I use them no problem.
I guess Attacks hold your boot closer to the ski so you aren't as tall. New models have a really small overhang to grab the toe so they have to be adjusted just right.
I think pivots also hold the boot really low, plus they somehow allow more flex underfoot.
Anyway that's what I've been able to pick up. Love to hear any real advantages/disadvantages of any of them.
