My 12 year old son won a pair of these (166) last year and wants to ski them this year. He's 5'2", almost 100 lbs soaking wet. I'm shopping for a binding for them (Alpine). Any suggestions what I should be looking for? He's in an adult 26.5 boot.

I'd recommend the Pivot 14 XXL (115mm brake) or the salomon STH 12. I work in a shop and I recommend these both because they'll fit on the S7, and because their important components are made of metal and are thus more durable. If you're a home-mounter, adjuster, or tinkerer, the STH12 is a more user-friendly binding. The Pivot 14 on the other hand has the highest elastic travel of any available binding, which decreases the incidence of prereleases and allows you to run a lower DIN than you might on other bindings.
