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 :-)

Burton Bindings

For a Burton Custom ICS board, do you need EST bindings or will any burton bingdings do? Also are the Burton Custom Progression Snowboard Bindings any good? Thanks !!

any burton binding will do, ICS boards come with 3 hole adaptor plates. it's only worth getting ICS with EST bindings, IMO it makes a difference for sure.

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

So if I were to buy Burton Custom Progression Snowboard Bindings would they be just as easy as EST bindings. Is there any other advantage of ICS other than it being easy to change your stance?

From what I have been told, Stab is spot on. Friends and shop staff who advised me were all raving about the feel and comfort of the new EST bindings.

How would Burton Custom Progression Snowboard Bindings be on a burton custom ICS. And are they any good?

I had customs for 2 years, I liked them and still have them on my rock board. Are they EST? I dont think they are are they? For me the ICS is only worth getting with the EST binding, cartels are my weapon of choice with the custom ICS.

I have been told that you can get adaptor plates to fit non EST bindings to ICS boards. It raises the foot bed though, so not ideal.

It doesnt raise the foot bed, it stays as normal. The new plates are 3 holes but with big slots so can be used on ICS or 3d. The middle slot becomes the viewing window like on the normal EST.
The footbed on a normal binding is higher than EST ones though, that is right.

Ok - I am a lazy git so can't be bothered to read through the Burton marketing cr*p - what is ICS and EST?

Come on stab, please explain.

Not easy on my phone but i'll try. Ics is the infinite channel system, basicaly 2 slotsthat the bindings can slide along where the binding holes would normally be. Add it to the new est bindings and its teh awesomez. It allows infinite stance and angles, no longer stuck to 3 degree variations and pre set binding holes. The base plates on est bindings are a cm of foam not plastic, this puts you right on the board and you feel more imo. If its good enough for jeremy jones its good enough for me, and no, i dont have a burton board but i have tested them.

The ICS system also lets you slide back for powder, in a couple of seconds. Just loosen the two screws per binding, slide back and re-tighten. Et Voila.
