By Ranked #23 - Telemark Bindings December 31, 2011

Been using the O1 since it was first released and theres a reason why I just bought another pair, because they are bad ass! A little heavier yes. Sometimes you get a little snow build up under the toe plate you have to clean out to lock the binding back into ski position. Sometimes the cartridges spin out. But every binding has their issues and these are pretty minimal in my opinion for why you buy these bindings, because you get phenominal power transfer, ease of switching from ski to tour and the cartridges don't get worn down because they are under foot.

i'm 148 pounds and have always been n the ridiculously stiff and have never felt more in control in any variety of snow condition and at any speed.
