Default Dynafit Bindings

Hi Simon,

I have used a pair for some years now - They can be the ticket to some
extremely light AT setups, but that lightness comes at a price, namely
that of a lot of compromises in performance.

Clearly their reason for being is lightness and not performance. On
Nov 03/04
there was this thread on this forum:How hard to switch modes with
Dynafit?
Have a look at it.

On the whole, it is best suited for light skiers or heavy skiers
without a large pack, on moderate tours. For really serious AT tours,
or for heavy skiers carrying heavy packs I would recommend something
else.

I see them as a very special arrow in my quiver and am inclined to the
view that unless fitted to an ultra-light ski, and skied with very
light rando racing type boots, they are wasted.

Cheers
Craig

so you wouldn't encourage this kind of behaviour?
