Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi
Got my son Corrupt skis ( dirty Fitzwilliams - horrid name! 163cm) and not sure what bindings to get, like many these days, not much money so looking for something reasonable ( or second hand) so anyone out there who can help I would be most appreciative.
He is 14 next seson and can get over most of a mountain with ease!
Many thanks

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

what's his weight, what bindings has he had in the past and what(if any) problems did he have with them. What's the price range and what sort of skiing will he be doing?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Hi
Thanks for coming back to me, he is about 58kgs and had Marker bindings on his Misdemeanours but has now grown out of them. Selling his old skis and bindings so having bought the skis not got much to spend ( although they were a stunning bargain!) so really a decent binding that is not too pricey i.e under £150?
Thanks very much

As mag1882, says the pivots are a steal for 170 euros. I love my pair on my park skis, have had no issues with them after a season of hard abuse in the park. They will easily outlast the skis so are worth the investment.

Whatever you get make sure you pick something with the appropriate break width so you can't catch when on edge.

Bear in mind that replacement brakes for look pivots are £75 a pair. Brakes for tyrolia can often be found as spares in most shop workshops for free or a nominal £5.

Tiff1234567, I've got some s/h silver/black 4-12din Salomon S912's for sale with the full metal Driver toe (bomb proof) & 92mm brakes (perfect for the 88mm DB's). Recently tested perfectly on my torque testing machine. Any shop has the mounting jig for these. £65 inc mounting or UK postage or can post to France for £75.

mag1882, sorry no, you're a few days too late as I've just sold a pair of STH14's to another . Only got the above 912Driver's. Less plastic in the 912's than the STH's.
