The Freerides are not all that light, when compared to the lighter
alpine bindings.  If Michael/Miguel has the plain S912 TI binding,
then it's 2kg/pair (= 4lb 6oz) vs. 4lb 4oz for the Freerides.  The
numbers are from backcountrystore and Salomon.  Some of the S912
models do weigh substantially more, though.

I'm sure that it will be possible to sell the skis sans bindings
on Ebay.  Will probably get around $150, +/- $50.  But selling
on Ebay is a headache.  Emails to answer, shipping to arrange and
possibly a mediocre selling price.  Figure at least two hours of
wasted time, which has to be deducted from the selling price,
assuming that personal time is worth something.

Of course, there's a good chance that someone on the list will want
this stuff, making it possible to rapidly dispose of the gear
at a fair price to all.

FYI, the current backcountrystore price for the Freerides is $200.
