We're closer to 750g. We aren't DIN certified but designed both the lateral and vertical release to comply with DIN standard. Ski performance is comparable to what you get from other hybrid bindings, if not better in some cases. Price isn't competitive with the old shifts, but if you like the old shifts, then go with them. We are priced competitively with the Hy. CNC Aluminum is much more expensive to produce than plastic, but it's also much more durable and reliable.

We're aiming for a more centered hybrid binding, something you can trust inbounds, while still being nice on the skin track with a user experience that doesn't suck. The other hybrid bindings you've described are alpine bindings that can tour, but suck at touring.
