I need bindings for my 2010 volkl walls nd I dont wana spend a ton of money so im looking at the Griffons or the FKS 120. I can get the griffons for about 200 from my local shop, and i found the fks 120s for close to that price on getboards.com. Which is better? Thank!!

you need something bigger then 12 din, and you will destroy plastic at that weight.

These: http://www.rossignol.com/US/fks-140-xxl_FKS140XXL_product_ski-men-bindings.html

This is a suggestion I'm not a Techy and I think this is what would be appropriate for you.

I reckon you should get Tyrolia Peak 15s. Thay have diagonal heel release and are pretty burly and less ridiculously priced than the new FKS. Or Jesters as the Griffons will be more likley to brake on you.

Not anymore,  they stopped the diagonal heel release a couple years ago.  Last years was the first without it I believe.  Still a great binding.  I haven't used it, but have heard only good things.

Yeah sorry I mean't to try and snag some of the older ones for cheap. I believe theres a guy in the uk in bst who is selling some for £120. Way cheaper than the new FKS.

If you like the Griffons you could always step up to the Jester 16s. Plus then you can grab their new schizo system which will accommodate your varied riding style. Keep in mind, you will have pay a little bit more for these but everyone else on here is right, you would probably destroy the Griffons.
