Who are lightweight bindings? Salomon 912ti, Salomon Z12ti or Marker Jester?
I can't speak for anyone else, but I'm not a lightweight binding.
I'm not sure bindings are able to type, so they might not chime in, but they're out there.

It is telemark. It is shit. I am not telemark. I am freeskier.
Feel "free" to gorge yourself on bag-o-dicks lite.Quote:

Fair enough man. But still not cool.
Dont' know about the Jester, but I ski the 912's all the time. Never had a problem with them, and they're light as shit.
The 912ti work for me. But i'm a small guy. If you are a huge Russian superman you might want something with less plastic.
Light, but some are better than others:
Rossi FKS 120
Look Nova series (and rossi equivalent
Salomon 997 composite
Salomon 912ti
Salomon Z12
Tyrolia 12 din's
Dynafits
Look P18's (if you need a high din)
"YES" THOSE ARE LIGHT!!!!!!!!!!

I love backcountry and i have many uphill. Also i have agressive skiing. My DIN is 11din front and 9din back. Therefore i want lightweight and strong bindings.
Is Look P18 lightweiht bindings ?? :eek:Quote:

P18's, at 5.5 lb, are lighter than some 12 and 14 din bindings. Not bad for a binding that goes to 18. ZR18's and 180 pro's are fractionally lighter at 5.25 lb.Quote:

The PX18 is heavy at ~7+ lb.
head/tyrollia mojo 15 is a bomber binding and much lighter than its immediate competitors despite having plenty of metal : )
+1.Quote:

Solid lock-in, excellent hold, released when I needed them to, lighter than most of the competition, and available at bargain prices, at least in the US ($100 for the Mojos, $60 for the d10s). I can't speak to durability, though.
Not so sure of the metal content....late time I checked, the housings are mostly plastic.Quote:
