    I just bought a ski kit that will hopefully keep me as versatile as your suggestions… I wish I would have found your post earlier…

      Hi Chris,

      It looks like a solid kit for side country and some longer tours. If weight becomes an issue I believe the Factors are tech binding compatible and you can eventually upgrade to a tech binding, Have fun on your new set up and be safe out there!

      Cheer,
      Matt
