I just purchased a pair of k2 recoils, and was wondering what people would recommend to mount on them. I am type 3+ skier, 140 lbs, 5'7", would be mounting at +5. I was looking at griffons or fks 120s, but i dont really know much about bindings other than the fact that the griffons on my kung fujas are working just fine. just wondering if it would be better to use something different with a park ski.

+k for explaining your answer

the marker griffons are a very good park binding and is pretty stable around the rest of the mountain. however, i believe that the salomon STH binding are the best. i have the markers on my salomon suspects and my STH on my pow skis and i think the STH are a more solid and safe binding!

Hope this helps

This years griffons are all plastic so they won't be the most durable. In my opinion the best low din bindings are the Ross Axail2s, I've had less of an issue with a prerelease than I have with my Jesters; when I use it they seem pretty durable, they're not quite as light as griffons but not terribly heavy. The most durable bindings by far are the FKS18 or STH16 however they are heavier and more expensive. I don't reccomend buying bindings because they are cheap then again don't buy bindings with a high din you don't need it's just a waste of money

Don't get griffons, I've had mine break multiple times, most recently earlier today.
