I have Solomon s810's on my K2's . Where on the Island are you? I think Princeton Ski Shop sells their crossfires with Solomon bindings.

Alright .... Princeton doesn't carry Crossfires anymore.....but they DO carry the Apache X with Marker piston bindings. I believe it's 450 when its all said and done (please call as I forgot to double check with the dude if that included bindings; I wouldn't want him to make the trip if I misunderstood.) (like that use of a semicolon Greg?) Don't go by their internet price. Me thinks that the X is one "step down" from the crossfire, but I may be wrong. (Incidentally the X and the Blackhawk are the same; The Blackhawk has the black and white Crossfire graphics, though) If he's in West Isip he may want to see if Sno Haus in Huntington can match....or give ALLSKIING a pm ... he's got the line on the suffolk shops.
