Looking at purchasing some Gator bindings. How good are these bindings? Also, will these fit an '07 SS Response?

Not sure if they'll fit the Response, but I have a pair of Gator Gonzalez bindings and love them. They are my 1st pair of closed toes though, so I could be biased at how much I enjoy them!

gator bindings are good, a lot of local riders here use them. but no, they can't fit your 07 Response AFAIK.

I had a pair of Gator Team bindings last year and i have never been more frustrated with anything. The first time i ever rode them they were fine. The second time i rode the laces broke and all of the pieces sank to the bottom of the lake. I had the company send me all new laces and pieces for them and they have since broken and fell off... I would just go spend the money on a pair of Ronix bindings. they are a little higher in price but well worth it.

^^^^Dang, that sux. Well, according to the other poster it doesnt sound like they will fit my board anyways.

oh, don't get the team bindings, the locks aren't good. the gator closed toes are sick tho'.

yep, try to see closeouts of Drivers and D2 or Floyds at boardersmall.

Just got a pair of Gonzales bindings. Little difficult to release teh laces, but my hands were completely numb too, 45deg water.
Only used them once now, but they were comfortable and rode fine.
Hope teh laces don't fall apart.
