    SwitchSkis -- a new binding swap system

    Another system to solve the problem of which binding on which ski. With SollyFit/DynaDuke plates no longer in production, and CAST system out of stock, multiple inserts is sort of the last resort for people who want to put 2 clamps on one ski or share a clamp across multiple skis. SwitchSkis...

    The Life of Bindings: How many ski days?

    Most think of skis as having 1-200 good days in them before their retired due to edges being tuned to death, core shots galore, general wear and tear or loss of camber life. So how about bindings -- in your experience: - How many days do you expect to get out of binding -- full ski days?(Or...

    Looking for binding advice

    I brought my skis to the shop where @Doug Briggs works (no Doug sightings, sadly) and asked for a tune, and also asked about greasing the bindings (Marker Griffon) to make them easier to step into. The shop guy said he could do that, but it would only last a couple of runs. He looked more...

    Same model bindings on all pairs of skis?

    Do you have the same model of bindings on multiple pairs of skis? I have the Salomon STH 10 Ski Bindings on two pairs of skis (K2 Superfree 163 & Volkl Aura 170). I'm not sure if I want to go with the same model on my new Volkl Kendo 163. On the plus side, the bindings are very light and not...

    Individual Review Thumbnail Review: 2016 Look Pivot Series

    What is the appeal of a binding that is older than the majority of the skiers who ski it? A timeless design. The Look Pivot turntable heel allows an incredibly short mount distance, which creates a very low rotation weight, which in turn creates a lighter feel and more responsive interface with...
