Corn, mank, deep pow, chowder...These will take anything you can throw at them. Super solid, direct connection to the ski. Enjoy 'em.

I would advise against the dukes, or baron's for that matter, for Wa snow most of the year. While the bindings are pretty bomber for the decent, the transition from touring to downhill is a pain because the wet cascade concrete gets bound up in the latching mechanism that Marker uses.
