Karhu 7tm bindings

I have used Voile release plate bindings, Skyhoy bindings, and now the Karhu releasable bindings with riser plates. I have hit binding edges before when in the Goat mountains in WA and was worried about laying the boards over too far on hard pack, kicking the edges out when skiing fast and turning as hard as possible, especially when rocketing from edge to edge. At last, I have found a great releasable binding that is easy to set up and use. I bought the ski brakes and the heel latch strap to keep everything where it needs to be and I love the combined effect. I can feverishly turn from edge to edge, putting torque and chatter on the bindings when turning fast on steep hard pack. They release only when they need to, which is what I want. It is glorious to have these work so smoothly, staying put in the wild outback. After each run, I stop, breathless, and laugh out loud. This is true love.
