We do not have the Salomon Guardian binding in our possession yet.
I personally use Dalbello kryptons with Dukes. Naxos and freerides suck for actually skiing on and there is alot of lateral play in them while new and they just get worse they also tend to prerelease alot. I owned Naxos and I hated them. Dynafit are great but require a dynafit boot which I am still not happy with any out there. Even dalbello dynafit boot is to soft and does not have the adjust ability I would want. the tecnia sidecounty boots are not a cabrio design so I do not want them, the dynafit vulcan is the closest so far.
but it is not out yet. I really want to run dynafits dues to the lightness but untill that boot comes out all dynafit boot do not fit what I feel a boot should be like.
The thing about skiing stowe's sidecountry and backcountry is that most of the lines you are coming up to are like skiing in a resort in difficulty if not harder and you do not want a bendy flexible unresponsive setup for it. there can due or die turns above cliffs/waterfall, places where your hoping turning and your traveling 15 foot each hop, and airs into dicey places. I do not trust anything but Dukes or dynafit personally.
