I've never tried to match bindings with my skis but they always seem to match but do you guys buy certain binding colors to match your skis?

I do when I have a choice of color with the same skis/bindings but would never buy a different model to make the colors match

imo, its a little awkward if everything matches. a friend got into skiing last year, and all his gear was beige, i cringed out looking at him, even his skis and boots. smh.

for bindings i think a solid white or black is best, but would give +rep for pirate bindings

If it's a no cost option then yes. This year the only $100 Attack 13s I saw were grey and black so that's what I got.

Hell no if ur smart you don’t give a flying fuck what the color is and you buy something for its functionality.


i got a bone to pick with people who pick skis bc of their fucking topsheet. Lemons.

Gotta admit, never got hurt on squires (couldn't even butter without ejecting tho). Tore my ACL on Pivots. Pivots don't really release any better than anything else these days. They just have great durability
