okay so this is my question.

i got some marker griffons that ive used for 1.5 seasons.
they seem dead and prerelease like CRAZY.
is this actually due to the springs just being dead or could the forward pressure be set wrong?

another question. if i have to replace them what are your guys thoughts on
http://www.evo.com/outlet/alpine-ski-bindings/look-px-12-80mm-brakes.aspx

weight wise in comparison to griffons
dependability wise in comparison
and performance wise

and incase anyone has to ask
im 5 11
155 lbs
ski almost 100 percent rails

thanks guys

the bindings shouldnt be broken after one and a half seasons, my guess is that they might be adjusted wrong, either the forward pressure is off or the DIN is wrong. If you have grown a lot since they were last adjusted or obviously if you got new boots and they werent adjusted again they would be off. I would take them to your local shop and have them checked out before you buy a new pair.

As for those bindings, I would recommend your griffons over those...I have seen PX 12s explode in the park before, but I also know people who have had good experiences with them.
