Agreed. I forgot how light they are but went to a Sports Chalet (my local shop

) and picked up cartels and malavitas and they did feel light.

I currently use Ride Meastros and I like them but I'm looking for a lighter binding for park use, big jumps and all, I ride a Bataleon Evil Twin which is on the stiffer end definitely and I would like a pair to of binding that are canted that would work well for park use.. I was looking at the Rome possibly

My K2 Formulas are VERY light, and have canting. Much lighter than other canted bindings I've owned like Rome 390 Boss & Ride NRC.

I don't actually own a pair, but it's a binding that has been well received by those who could get their hands on it. BA has a review here

It also has what you're looking for - light weight and canting. I don't think this forum is very fond of thegoodride but whatever, I'll link you to that too

As far as I could tell the ones I rode were not canted. I'm not sure why that's listed on the website. Chiefs are though.

From what I understand, Salomon's canting system is like Burton's where you can't see it with the naked eye but it's integrated into the foam.
