Poster: A snowHead
|
Hello All
My bf picked up a Head Matrix dirt cheap today and now is looking for bindings. He's only done 1 week on snow- and this is his "starter" board, so nothing too flash needed. He doesn't want flows either -
any suggestions?

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Nadenoodlee, the question is .. How much does he want to pay?
Ride do excellent bindings and they have come down in price this year. I have only used Burton, Ride or Salomon bindings so not sure how the others rate.

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

The older salomon, sp1/2/3/4 in general suck, I could never get them tight enough. They seem to have sorted that out now though.
Burton cartel, custom or missions are ok, I still haven't broken my customs after a year, and for me not to break something is unheard of.
K2 cinch maybe? A combo of flow and straps.
Don't get Nidecker unless the idea of hiking out of places appeals to him.

Curious as to why no flows?
Has he had a bad experience with them?

tuxpoo, He just doesn't like them. I think its down to his experience of them when he was learning. Im not a fan of them, so he's probably just copying me!
K2 Cinch have been mentionned a few times, but I would be too tempted to use them myself!

Poor setup seems to be the biggest reason why folk fall out with Flows.
Saying that, there seems to be some right good 'standard' bindings out there

any bindings that fit the boots properly would be my preference at his stage
