    Freerides vs. N02 for intro tourer

    OK, So i picked up a pair of Naxo 02 when they were on SAC a bit back since they were cheap and available. These were going to give me two BC rigs with the others being a set of freerides mounted ona pair of atomics. I was going to 'give' the freeride set to my wife for touring. She has not not done very much but she is an experienced skiier, but wanted to start touring

    Now when i bought the naxo's i really wanted a pair of Dynafits. Hopefully the group buy will go through and i can pick up a pair. but that will leave me with 3 bindings , 2 skis and a possible irate wife for buying more gear.

    So my question, which would be easier to learn to tour with, the naxos or freerides? Would i be able to get more for the freerides, whats a used pair going for these days?
    I know it would be easier to get rid of the naxos, since i can just return them, but am also considering selling either one of them and just mounting the other.

    Any opinions on this?

    Whos the rig going to be for...you or the wifey????? Since I think the naxos go up to only a 10din...they likely would be prefect for the wifey....they certainly tour better than the frankenfoot freerides....

    Id say mount up the naxos for the wifey and buy yourself some dynafits....the freerides can be mailed to me directly...PM me for my address. THANKS..

    I would get the dynafits, she would get the freerdie/naxo. those naxos only go to 10.

    DOn't think it really matters but she would be in alpine boots
