Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Which snowboard bindings do you recommend for me????
 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead

So i bought a pair of new 2006 Salomon Optima boots. I'm a petite girl, about 5'0, maybe pushing 100 lbs. and mostly do freeriding, occassional spending an hour or so in the park. I'm an advanced skill level rider.

I'm wondering what bindings will best fit my riding style and my new boots.
Right now I'm between the following three:
-K2 Cinch (hybrid)
-Flow Amp 5
-Ride Dva

Whats important to me is durability, light weight, snug fit to boot, and ease of use.

Anyone have any input on these choices? Pros, cons, horror stories?

Thanks and happy riding!

Three different types of binding there... I think it'll come down to your preference... Personally I now ride Cinch - ( all mountain riding ) . Like them alot, very convenient. Before that had FL5 Flows... also liked these, again very convenient. Before that I rode straps. Very unlikely to return to straps - nothing to do with the riding just the ease of getting in and out on Cinch / Flows.

My wife rides on Ride Vxn's, thou we've had problems with them ( the binding plate is a weak alloy and the threads stripped ) and the ratchets on one strap has failed several times.

You should take a look at the thread on Flows for more opinion...
