By Ranked #501 - Alpine Touring Bindings October 22, 2011

I am trying to decide which Markers to mount on my Rossi Voodoo SC80's. I'm 5'6", 130 lb and ski a DIN 7 on my regular alpines. Will probably do about 60% in bounds and 40% backcountry this season. Is the lighter F10 giving up any toughness to the Baron?

The F10 has had some serious durability issues that reared their ugly head last season. There have been a whole slew of bindings that have had broken toe pieces. Marker has a great warranty program, but that doesn't help you when you are on the mountain or on vacation. I know someone who's toe piece broke, he sent it back, received a new pair and it broke again a short while later. The second time he sent it back, he spoke to marker and asked about durability, long story short, after that conversation the replacement pair he received was a pair of barons. The baron is slightly heavier but has much better performance and durability. For what you're looking to do with the binding, you would be much better off getting the baron.
