So I have been trying to decide if I should sell my Made'ns for Hell Bents recently, and didnt know what to do. But after getting another paycheck, I am just getting the best of both worlds....both, due to an inpule buy last night that landed me some Hell Bents in the mail. So, I thought I'd check here if anyone has any FKS series or P18/15s for sale. Let me know.

You'd be better of with a PX binding on such a wide ski. Less of a chance of ripping them out.

PX bindings don't have the DIN range he's looking for.  That is, unless he gets the PX15 or PX18, which have a narrow screw pattern.

hes asking for fks or p18s....meaning px's arent what hes looking for. pretty sure he posted this to buy a pair of fks, not to ask for binding advice.

Epoxy will solve that.

Yeah, its cool. I was just checking here to see if there was anything good. But I just went with good old reliable like I always do. Proctor Jones for $179 bucks.

and a much greater risk of prerelasing, and getting stuck with a shitty, broken binding that kills the flex of the ski (on a ski as soft as hellbents, you will definitely feel the added flex of a turntable heel.

they don't fucking rip out. if they rip out you didn't glue the holes / add epoxy or your tech is an idiot.
