Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi all
I’m a skier but am learning to board, been given a board by a friend he said it’s perfect for a beginner he’s same height and weight but he’s got no spare bindings, I go on Tuesday so does anyone know where I can grab some cheap bindings quickly, based in Coventry.
Cheers.

I have some bindings in London
Even if you could get them in time .....knowing your boot size and brand would help with what binding sizes are needed to fit your boots .
If you dont have any snowbrd boots then foot lenghts or shoe size would be a start.
It also helps to know if the boards a 4x4 bolt or Burton 3D or Burton channel so you get the right mounting hardware

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Thank you very much that’s very kind, I did actually mean could anyone recommend a shop I wasn’t on the scrounge, I know nothing about the board I was going to take it to the shop with me.
My local shop is ski only and anything else I can find is snow and rock type place which don’t usually have stock.

@Cov_lad, Where are you heading to? You can probably pick some up in resort, though maybe not so cheap. Is there not a shop attached to the snowdome at Tamworth?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Ellis Brigham has bindings in the £90-160 range although sizing and stock may be limited at certain stores .
Is that cheap ....well its probably the only choice one day out from traveling and in resort will be full cost and/or could be limited stock.
Often when buying lower cost bindings new in a hurry, depending on your weight ,you end up with very soft flexing entry bindings .
So Id look at the a pair with a suitable flex if you have a choice .

Otherwise you could forget taking the board/bindings and rent a setup in resort .

Dude, just rent a board / bindings / boots in resort.
If you're learning to board and hate it the shop will probably let you switch to skis.
If you're intent on buying then take your deck and boots with you to make sure there aren't issues with mounting / overhang etc.
Oh, and enjoy the ride!

Most rental places will let you rent just a pair of bindings too if you are set on taking your own board. I had to when I forgot to take my own bindings when we drove to Val Thorens once. Or, Decathlon Coventry may have some - call them first though or order to collect in branch
