Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

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

Watch the Angry Snowboarder review then go and buy the Nidecker ones (or the Burton ones).

As a more detailed reply, there should be red flags everywhere for this.
It's a prototype binding that's gone straight to production.
Literally the only reviews for months were paid for, influencer led reviews (to the point that you posting this makes me question whether you've been paid by them to).
They seem to shy away from open, impartial reviews that none of the major brands do.
I'd be very very wary having seen them up close. They look cheap and nasty but are very expensive.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Get the Nidecker ones in that case. I've got Step Ons for the same reasons but I'd probably do Nidecker now just for boot choices.

Also, all these systems really are game changers in terms of enjoyment if you've a bad back or anything. I'd struggle to be persuaded back to straps.

I’ve not tried the Clew bindings.
My opinion is they look weird.
I’m 2 seasons in on the Nidecker Supermatic and absolutely love them.
This season I have around 45 days riding with them and think they are awesome.
They are heavier than a conventional binding however I have come from using Flow bindings so use to the weight.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

I’m currently in the 3V and have probably only seen five or six pairs of the Nidecker in the last two months.
Maybe two or three Clew and loads of burton step ins.

Maybe a email to Nidecker. Tell them where you will be in Easter and see if they have a dealer that can demo for you.
Personally. Just buy a pair. You will love them, and if you don’t, sell them on.
All of my mates use the flow binding.
They have all said they will upgrade to the Nidecker.
(Same company by the way)

You know it makes sense.

Some places are renting the Burton step-on systems. ZeroG in Chamonix for sure and I think at least one place in Tignes.
