Who would love these

These bindings are perfect for freestyle and freeride skiers who value versatility and a smooth ride. If you love exploring different terrains and want a binding that adapts to your style, the Strive 12 GW is for you. They're also great for skiers who use both traditional alpine and GRIPWALK soles, thanks to their easy adjustability. However, if you're a hardcore downhill racer, you might want to look for something more specialized.

Why I recommend these

Lightweight & low-profile
Superior elastic travel
GRIPWALK compatible
Enhanced snow feel

Expert verdict

The Armada N Strive 12 GW Ski Bindings are a game-changer for anyone who loves skiing. They're lightweight and low-profile, which means you feel more connected to the snow. The elastic travel is like having a built-in suspension system, making your ride smoother and more responsive. Plus, they're GRIPWALK compatible, so you can easily switch between different boot types. Whether you're hitting the park or carving through fresh powder, these bindings offer the control and confidence you need. Just be aware that they might not be the best choice for extreme downhill racers due to their focus on versatility and freestyle performance.

Incredible
5 /5
Kat was incredibly knowledgeable, taking the time to learn everything about my current setup, my current skills, and my future goals to make sure she checked all of my boxes. As a woman, able to work one on one with a woman in the sport definitely made the whole process more personable, approachable, relatable, and overall a super awesome experience!

At first I thought Darren was just a robot but after some light conversation and even a detailed video explaining the picks he made for me I was thoroughly impressed by the service. If I’m ever shopping for more equipment I’ll be using curated and hopefully Darren again.

I was skeptical at first about buying my first ski setup from Curated But having Nick as my expert to help was such a great experience that I felt confident and good about purchasing from this site and the recommendations he gave to me based on our conversation. He was very helpful and friendly and helped me to stay within my budget while findings products for me that were tailored to my experience level and needs as a beginner skier. Nick was awesome and I definitely would work with him again in the future!

Vincent - Better than Van Gogh
5 /5
Honestly the best customer service I have ever encountered. Vincent helped me not only find the best board but the best board for me. He helped me find the best setup for each "scenario" that I had and explained why each was the best choice. Ended up purchasing my dream setup because of Vincent. All the best to Vincent and the team.

I live in a resort town with access to lots of folks up on current tech and trends, so I am suprised with the quality of shopping experience on Curated. It's like having a personal shopper who is equal parts knowledge and patience, backed by an inventory to find the perfect fit. Just fantastic. Zero pressure to purchase. Highly recommend!
