I have no idea -- I haven't skied on an alpine setup since the '70s.

Randy how would you compare the Alpinist to a alpine binding; as solid as or less.  My barons have proven as solid as an alpine binding and perhaps a tad less if one were skiing moguls, but as a resort binding on hardpack they, so far seem the best for their weight.

Wow that's over 50 years ago. I was hoping I might hear about the new Salomon Shift here or the Kingpin and other touted bindings from real user's experience.
Thanks for all the comments greatly appreciated

I have the newer Dynafit Rotation bindings on my winter touring skis. They are pretty heavy. But you get full DIN release in a pin binding, good touring features, and it skis well. I skied at Monarch mountain on monday with those skis and didn't feel like the bindings were holding me back at all. No prerelease unlike my older Dynafits, smoother ski feel throughout the flex of a turn.
Honestly it sounds like you should just stick with the Barons if they work for you. I agree with the Wildsnow article that alpine bindings inbounds are best.
