Calling Pug.
Looking at picking up a pair of Lange RX 130 LVs. The bindings are all mounted for a 305 BSL the Lange's are a 306 BSL, consequently the binding should not need any size adjustments. The Lange boots come with GW sole plates mounted, for the moment assume I can't find any Alpine DIN sole plates to replace the GW. I have never had boots with GW. All the bindings mounted on my skis say GW compatible (even the Pivots) except one. The bindings mounted on my Billy Goats are Salomon STH 13s, these bindings say WTR compatible. I will confess that I am not familiar with anything other than the traditional Alpine DIN soles. Consequently I have some ignorance driven questions.
For a GW compatible binding I assume everything is "compatible" so that you step in and go no need to do anything, is that correct? Based upon what I have found on the interweb GW will work in WTR compatible bindings but WTR will not work in GW compatible bindings, is this correct? Consequently the Salomon's being WTR compatible should work for GW soles, is this correct? Also presumably compatible means "compatible" so the Salomon's should be step in and go, is this correct?
Final question any performance concerns with GW soles?
Thanks!
