Go to Boat U.S. and get one of the pre-setup packages. Dont start spending big $$$$ until you're quite good.

Not sure if you have a Sports Chalet where you're at, but they're pretty popular here on the left coast

I demo'ed my bindings (2004 Parks Option2) which cost me $20 for the weekend. I decided on them, and they took the $20 I paid in "demo" against a new pair
