Trying to make the switch to AT but not sure which binding to buy? I'm just starting to get into backcountry and for the first year or so will be 80/20 resort/backcountry. I'm a woman, 5'6" pretty agressive skier but looking to improve and get more comfortable out of bounds.

Either the Marker Baron or the Fritschi Freeride. If you already have an alpine setup though which you can continue to use inbounds, and you think there is a good chance you'll get deeper into backcountry then definitely worth considering the Dynafit bindings. You'd be glad of it in the longer run, though a steeper initial learning curve.
