fks are turntables that is they swing around 360 degrees, which is awesome when you need to eject. they have wayyy more metal in them so they last much longer, they have a much smaller footprint so you can actually flex the ski correctly instead of having a huge dead spot like on the px's. such a superior binding.

Depends which ones you're talking about. Generally, any of the FKS or Look race stocks are just stronger and more heavy duty than the px bindings. They have more metal in them plain and simple, and, if they are like the fks 155 or 185 (or p18), they have a high DIN that can accomodate more aggressive skiing, as well as even more metal that say the fks120/p12 race. The pivot heel is also a retention delight. Smaller mounting zone means for a better (and noticable) natural flex of the ski.

you should learn how to type in sentences people can understand.  but if you can get some fks get them because they are rare, and then sell them on here to a more needy person
