Has anyone mounted these to mid-fat skis? I'm considering Line Prophet 100's as my 1 ski quiver, and am thinking about putting alpine touring bindings on to rip around the local resort's OB (mainly to get first bowl tracks and piss off my boarder friends. (The skis are 100 mm wide) . Would anyone recommend these, or another? Another question, do these take the abuse of all-mountain riding on the resort in hard snow conditions?Actually, forget the last q... Why would you endure bad snow conditions if you had these??? Am I right?

I have them mounted on a pair of 100 Prophets. They work well, it is a bit of a pain getting tip loops large enough to fit. I got rid of the leashes and got the wide breaks for them. It is a shame that BD charges 70 bucks for them. I would just spend the little extra and get the stronger model. I have broken the plastic heel piece before.

These would work, but if your focus is on resort skiing and some sidecountry, there are better options out there. Check out the Marker Duke/Baron as well as the Fritschi Freeride Plus. These are all much more suited to the demands of ripping down the mountain and not as focused on the hike up.
