| wakesetter1989, What are you looking to spend? Also, are you looking for new or used? Is there any reason you're staing away from a closed-toe boot? |

| I am looking at spending about 200-250. I like the feel of open toe better. And sometimes other riders use my board, so i like something that fits more than one foot size. Thanks for the replies. |

| Thanks for the help. Anyone tried the Hyperlite Focus or Remix? What about the CWB torqs? |

| Ive tried the CWB torqs, I liked them but theyre not a very stiff binding, its quite short above the ankle. I like my bindings quite stiff and responsive. Im a fan on the heel lock on CWB. |

| I need some advice on open toe bindings. I will probably buy O'Brien Access. I'm a size 10. Should I go for the size range 7-10 or 10-12? Do you know if these or similar bindings run small/big or wide/narrow? I have to order online, so I will not be able to try them. Thanks. |

| I love Hyperlite but I have the remix bindings and I would not recommend them. I have only used them probably 6 or 7 times and they are already getting slight tears in them. They also come loose a lot while riding. |

| I use the Ronix Kai's OT. Super happy with them. Very comfortable and supportive |

In that range you are looking in I would suggest the Hyperlite Focus, Ronix Kai OT, and possibly the CWB Vapor.
- Focus is the highest end Hyperlite open toe boot, until the Team OT comes out for 2013 which looks sick
- Ronix Kai OT is super comfortable and light
- CWB Vapor is stiffer than the Torq and has all velcro straps so it's easy to adjust _________________
