I'm 5'6", 140lb girl and I ski 120+ days a year. I want to use these bindings on my Kikus but I'm not sure they will hold up 100+ days both off the lifts and under the ropes. I'm not super concerned with weight at this point and I love this price point, but I might be able to afford the Dukes. Anyone have an opinion?

With more metal, the dukes are going to be slightly more durable over time. I know plenty of people who have similar time on snow to you and have had the barons for a couple seasons now. They are a very durable binding, especially now that Marker has worked out the kinks. You really can't go wrong with either. If something does go wrong though, Marker has a great warranty program.
