Salomon STH16

I love this binding. It’s no nonsense all the way. The 9 to 16 DIN allows almost anyone the retention they need for aggressive skiing. When shifting from AT to alpine boots, the DIN, toe- height and length-adjustment are simplified with one large slotted screwdriver. The heel locks you in place with a decisive klwack. My only wish is that the wing adjustments were with the same screwdriver. That aside, I find myself waiting on friends who don’t have this binding, floundering in the powder or frustrated on the steeps, fiddling about with inferior functions.
