BD 01 (short) or G3 Targa Ascent? Medium sized lady looking for free-pivot binding. Just got a pair of BD Joules.

Which binding should I get? Same price, similar features. I've heard that the 01 is burlier, but since I'm on the lower weight bracket of users, would this come in to play?

They are quite different bindings and I would go with BD for an active binding or G3 for a free-flex set-up.
