Hi, does this binding have a plastic middle so that it wont stiffen the ski underfoot (unlike for example the diamir freeride binding does, i heard it doesnt grip hardpack/ice well). Thanks

This binding definitely stiffens the ski. It also enables the gripping of hard pack. I think these binders are a little burlier than the fritschi (they also weight more).
