consider a Fischer S-Bound 98 instead of the Madshus, for the sole reason that the climbing scales are much better on the Fischer, and you'll be doing a lot of that. for boots, i recommend finding whichever boot fits the best, and then getting a binding based on that. so if you try on many boots and...
