So I got my first board last week (O'Brien Demented 141), and my O'Brien Xenon bindings arrived today. I've never attached bindings to a board before, so I really don't have any idea how to do it, especially since it came with no instructions. Also I was wondering if I should do any 'breaking in' of the bindings before attaching them to the board? Also I hear that I should keep my bindings the same in order to make riding switch easier.

Any advice or links would be greatly appreciated.

you will have the thumbscrews with the bindings yeah? find a position that you think you will be comfy riding in and place the screws either side of the board in the appropiate holes. ive got my bindings identical to each other and i think it helps me ride switch.

most people brake in there bindings if there extremly tight just by streching them out all it is is stuffing something into the part you put ur feet in like some people throw in a bottle of jack daniels others a soda lots work

not always needed
