Hey I ordered a new board... But now i need boots and bindings. I was looking at the Burton Moto boots... then i need a decent pair of bindings. Im not very experienced ive only been a couple times... I wear size 12 boots. I found some bindings around the net for under 100 bucks... IM really kinda looking for something really cheap but not crap. I don't mind if its sligtly used... as long as its fully functional. Any sugestions on what to get or at least where to look? _________________ DON'T TAKE LIFE SO SERIOUSLY...

you should checkout technine bindings. i have rode their bindings for the past 2 years and never had a problem with them. plus if you do have a problem they all carry a lifetime warranty. _________________ www.wakesidemarine.com |

Yo...
I was looking at the technines. They have a choice of 3 hole disc.. or 4X4 disc. Does this matter for the board im getting. Like will either of them fit on my board. I have a sims fs750. Later _________________ DON'T TAKE LIFE SO SERIOUSLY...

I am in the same boat. I have a new Burton Bullet board, and am looking for bindings. I like the Flow Amp-5, what is everyone's opinion on Flow?
I also need boards, bindings, and boots for my two boys. I would really like to get them the 'step-in' type, so they could get themselves in at the top of the lift. They were able to get into the switch binding (rentals) last year. I have had a hard time finding the switch binding/boot combo in kid's sizes. Any suggestions? |

I love my burton freestyle bindings. I'm pretty sure they make them in the bigger size. I got mine for $150 new and i've never had a problem except for when they get caked with powder then they jam but prettymuch all bindings do. _________________

My friend just got some cheepie technines, and they are sick, far far sicker than my free styles...
i got mine for $75 new (freestyles)... but i might upgrade to some technines before the season is thru
as for the burton moto boots, i too own these, i do not peticularly care for them, they dont seem to have good ankle support...
id look at some othor boot brands.... but that just my oppion....
also dont skimp on boots, boots will either make or break your day on the hill. _________________ wakeboards

WakeBoredude02 - for your sims you will use the 4x4 disc. only burton does the 3 hole with their boards for some stupid reason. you can get the technine pro series for under $150. honestly they are the most comfortable bindings i have ever rode. i tried to go back to drakes but they just didnt feel right. _________________ www.wakesidemarine.com |

Drake is the way to go for bindings, period. I have never been more satisified with a pair of bindings. _________________

im a big fan of ride bindings, a friend of mine was sponsored by them last year, and they put out a special "rockstar" binding for all the pros and he hooked me up with a pair, he got them for free but he said they retailed for like 300....they are the most amazingly solid bindings ive ever ridden _________________ its not who you ride for, its how you ride-- as long as you ride good infront of girls |
