i wanted an aggressive binding

By WhitCali Ranked #439 - Alpine Ski Bindings July 9, 2009

I skied on these bindings all of 3 days. 1st day, I pre-released on an icy, steep and completely wind buffed (NO bumps) pitch. I walked right out of them when I initiated a turn. So I cranked the dins. The next day was a powder day and again I walked right out of them. The pre-release wasn't accompanied by the ski flex that causes pre-releasing...just an open field. 3rd day I was too pre-occupied with my bindings so I retired them.

This will be my 3rd set of bindings that I will be sending back to Salomon. My last two pairs I had to send back because the toe piece adjustments just wouldn't hold. I've been a Salomon fan since the 80s (why my loyalty) but something has happened to the quality. I'm done.
