I am aggressive, 6' and 185 pounds but fairly new to BC. I want to mount these on my Icelantic Nomad SFTs. 1- I might be getting a pair of Volkl Kuros soon. Would I be able to bend the brakes for 132 underfoot? 2- I will probably go BC about 4 times next season, is it worth dishing out for the Dukes?

I usually run at 10. I'm thinking I'll just dish out the extra 50 bucks and get the Dukes. I've also improved a lot since I bought my last pair of bindings so I'll probably up my DIN anyway... Oh and btw I found out you can buy 132mm brakes for Marker Royal Family bindings so the Kuros shouldn't be a problem.

If you're aggressive then you'll probably want the Dukes. What DIN do you usually run at? If it's above 10 I'd go for the Dukes instead of the Barons.
