What AT bindings would you recommend for the JJ? I've got Freerides on my ARVs, but the brakes aren't wide enough for the JJ. Any thoughts or suggestions?

my personal recommendation would be the Marker Dukes. They will give you the best performance out of those skis. You can get the wide brakes which fit perfectly on the JJ's.

I toured with Marker Barons on mine (I ski at around a 10 DIN so I didn't want to shell out all the bucks for Dukes). I thought it was an okay setup for short trips and such, but the rocker tail makes it hard to get a grip on steep or icy approaches and the overall weight of the bindings kind of drained me on long days. If most of your touring is going to be quick jaunts out to fun lines, a Duke/Baron and JJ setup will be really fun. You won't lose any downhill performance when you're at the resort either so that's a major bonus!
