I'm interested in these, tore my acl at gunstock in February.

I do. Used them all season and the only thing I can say is they feel just as solid as the Looks and Markers that I've owned. I did not fall a single time this year so I have nothing to claim on how the release performs. I didn't pre-release though.

Ive never had a season without some falls. A combination of being in better shape, skiing half my typical number of days, and being a bit gun shy early season all contributed to not falling I'm sure.

There are a number of threads over on Epicski for this. There's one in the members ski gear review forum in which quite a few owners chimed in on their experiences.

Falls aside, the only extra thing to deal with is they are foot specific. You always put the same binding on the same foot because they're designed to release in a certain direction.

My only complaints are they're a bit pricey (but chump change compared to knee surgery) and there's no AT version.

I n't seem to find any info as to what ski's they are compatable with. Most skis come with bindings these days.

I called The Pro who carries the bindings but they are closed for the season.

Anyone know?

any flat ski should accommodate them just fine
