    Bindings for Blizzard Bonafide

    Have some 187cm, '16/'17 Bonafides to mount up. Typically I would throw some old FKS on them and be done with it, but I'm considering other options. STH Steels??? STH2 16's? Look ZR? Jester Pro's?

    I thought you only skied DIN20 vibranium race bindings?

    If you've run out of those, probably Howell's are the best bet: https://howell-ski-bindings.myshopif...-888-wc-racing

    Looks like TGR is killing skiing faster than global warming

    Howell SkiBindings is against (a) ski waist widths greater than 100mm AND (b) all 'pin-binding's' (except Trab TR2) — due to their association with a new type of skiing-injury: severe, high-energy tibia-plateau and tibial-tuberosity fractures. Both new types of skiing injuries are the fastest-growing categories of injuries in skiing — matching the growth of fat-skis and pin-bindings. The high-energy nature of the new types of skiing fractures involve multiple-fragments, difficult surgical reconstruction, and 10 to 15-months of aggressive rehabilitation. Fat skis on firm snow are a serious problem for the sustainability of our beautiful sport.

    These binding questions, when people have options, always blows my mind. How is the FKS or another Pivot not automatically winning the argument if you have options?

    STH, Jester, etcetera are for people who don't want to spend money on the best binding in the world.

    This one is obvious: THE RED ONES!
    given that bonafides are red and all.

    $1500 for a binding that's been out of production for 25 years? Epic.

    Throw old FKS's on them and be done with it.
