I'm thinking about getting the 2010 ronix frank bindings and wanted to see if anybody's used them and has anything to say about them. Also im a size 11 in most shoes, is the 11-12 going to be way too big?

Also i snowboard with size 10.5 burton boots and have fairly narrow feet... A little nervous about these fitting, would it be better to get 10s and then have the heat molding "pack them out"?

that is a tough call. I would try on a pair at your local shop. If you do not have a shop boardstop can send you a size and if they do not fit they can send you the other size.

They are sweet bindings. Comfy and supportive.

for sure boardstop can help ya out.

heres my expereience.
i wear a size 10.5 shoe(10UK)
i bought the size 10 ronix binding (reliks)
my right foot fits PERFECT
on my left foot my big toe touches the front pretty hard and is really red and hurts after riding. (apparantly my left toe is oversized lol)
but ive only riden them once for an hour and water temp was 51*. so once it warms up and gets packed out im guessing they will fit perfect. the 11s were much to big for me.

STANG KILLA SS, thanks, your shoe size is pretty much exactly the same as mine so this is definite a help. With the Franks only coming in 10 or 11-12 i feel like the 10 is the way to go. If they're too tight I'll probably to have to move to a different binding, hopefully it'll just work out the first time tho!

The size jump in the franks is pretty big. I wear an 11.5 and ride 10's in all ronix boots. My right foot is actually closer to a 12 and my left closer to 11, but I like a snug fit. you can feel pretty safe going down a half size in ronix.

Got them in the mail on Friday and all I can say is wow! They were a bit tight in the toes at first but after taking them to a snowboard shop and getting them heat molded they are awesome!! By far the most comfortable bindings I've had. I basically spent the weekend watching the tourney while wearing the setup to really get them fitted correctly. Thanks boardstop and everybody for the advice!!
