Hard to get a read on the Shift based on this thread and reconciling that with the opinions of people I see skiing them. Everytime I see somebody on a shift, I ask how they like them and if they've had any pre-release issues and by and large, most people love them and indicate no problems with them. In fact, talked to somebody today that said they skied them everyday at snowbird and loved them. I'm pretty sure most people I'm asking aren't doing alot of touring and probably aren't hucking or maching anything -the person I asked today was skinning up PCMR.... Anyway, trying to decide if this is the binding for my wife who does mellow tours and inbounds "exercise" skinning. No plans to ski them aggressive but would like them to stay on on hardpack, spring corn, thick mellow powder, and the occasional bump run. Definitely not an everyday binding for her but hoping for some confidence when she does ski them.
