dynafit- brake or leash

[jesselillis]

im new to skiing, looking to buy an at setup this season so i can start moving uphill (after years of snowboarding- i am not interested in splitboards... yet)

so, dynafit bindings

ive heard leashes will help drag you down in an avalanche, since even though you've released, the ski anchors are still attached to you (and may propellor your face in the process). i've also heard dynafit brakes dont work very well. thoughts? id rather lose a ski than be trying to swim with anchors, but if you have experience with brakes leashes, i'd like to hear.

thanks
