These are Demos though-nearly twice the stack height of the standard attack and 400 more grams of weight.

Much better binding. :) If you want orange and 100 mm is right for you. But these were $40 cheaper last year, unfortunately.

This is not a "good deal" for that binding. Not even close.

The 'MN' means multi norm. That tells you what types of sole standards these bindings work with.

ik theyre demos

That should lower the price, not raise it, over the non-demo version. It's not a more desirable feature.

Multi Norm for touring soles as well as regular alpine and grip walk.

For better or worse, these are demo bindings. They can be adjusted to different boot sizes without re-drilling.

And let you screw around with moving your foot forward and backwards to find what you like.

MN means Minnesota, which means you can only use them for really shitty Great Lakes skiing. If you try to take them above 3000 feet they fall apart.

These routinely go below 200 on Amazon.

Just looked, there's a lime green pair for 188 right now

If i’m not mistaken it means it’s using multi norm certified plates which allows for most boots to be used

Wait a few months and you can purchase the non-demo version for <$200 because they always go on sale

$200 is not a good deal on demo attacks, you can get normal ones in a funky color for $180 on amazon and you can get black or white ones at around that price point if you shop around a little. Normally bindings of this caliber are closer to $130-$160 (sometimes even like $110!) but the market for bindings is shitty right now.

Dunno about shipping costs to the US but (Austrian indy manufacturer of amazing skis) Down Skis are selling NEW Tyrolia Attack2 14 GW for 89 euros (105 USD). Only Yellow versions for 89 ( red are 99, blue black are 240 euros) but it's an absolutely insane price for these brilliant bindings.

Shipping to the US was more than the binding itself

Just scored a set of attack 14s off sideline swap for $120. Still a few sets on there too

Always liked these bindings. Held my 250lbs ass in ripping down steep n deep.
