They are rebadged Tyrolia's
Tyrolia makes bindings for Head, Fisher, Elan and 4FRNT that they brand under their names.

Which are all solid bindings. Probably my favourite after fks/solly.

I would say they beat FKS with replaceable brakes, and Salomon bindings are kinda baus, but only the toe piece.

I have the 4FRNT Deadbolt 15's and I have never had any issues. I keep them cranked tho. I always liked salomons but they get beat up pretty easy. The replaceable brakes are money bags!

Tyrolias perform better when the forward pressure is set on the high side.

Was there ever any problem with the original or season two of the deadbolt 15s? I just remembered I have a mint pair in my shed back in Golden

Are those the re-badged VISTs?

I am Unsure, haven't been home in forever either to see what their weight is. I think when 4FRNT began making bindings, they were the Vist

Yes, the original 4FRNT binding was a VIST binding.
100% positive on that.

Yeah, the first few years our bindings were Vist, but now we make them out of the Tyrollia factory. They're so much better now that we've made the move.

I concur. I had an old pair of the VIST bindings, and the worm screw stripped after half a season. Tyrolia makes a much better binding IMO. Its all I have now.

Have 2 pairs of the Deadbolt 13s on my skis and couldn't be happier. Best bang for your buck imo in the binding market. Next pair of skis probably step up to the 15s but they are all bomber by what I've seen.

I have DB15's and love em. Rock solid.
