I recently purchased a double up board w/ hyperlite bindings. The board is the "instigator" a late 90's board i believe. It looks to have after market fins(not favoring one stance). My question is, the bindings are a size medium. Im a 10.5 in mens. It took me bout 15 mins to get them on the first time but it kept gettin easier but was still a tad on the difficult side. Are they too small or is that how they are? Thanks guys.(gals too)

I think you can adjust those bindings but try the binding lube first

I have 10.5 foot and use large binding. if your feet are hurting when you rice and loosing circulation then your bindings are definately too small.

They arent tight to the point where i lose circulation. Just tight. I have Hyperlite Spin Bindings but i personally feel they are too loose and my brother prefers them over the power boots.

Just buy some LF bindings and you'll be okay.

If your not loosing circulation and they dont hurt they are probably fine.

If you can get into them and can get out of them, in my experience often harder if the bindings are small, and they feel OK while riding they are just fine!
