My new CWB board and bindings should be here very soon. Of course, I told two of my boarding buddies about it and they said they wanted to ride it. We are all novice boarders. I was wondering...is there any legitimate reason not to let anyone else ride your board? For example, should the bindings be molded only to your foot? Anyone got a clear cut answer to that one?

Oh, and for the record, I already told them both "NO!" Laughing

So switch the bindings on the board so they dont mess up your bindings.

Other people wearing your bindings can definitely stretch them out so they don't fit as well. Some worse than others.

I'm pretty sure I have bigger feet than either of them. Is this the only concern?

I believe letting people ride my '05 Spynhx is what caused them to get so loose after every jump, so i would say if the persons foot size is not your foot size, i wouldnt recommend letting someone use them.

my new shanes are for my feet only, friends have already been begging me to try them.

my friend had some kid ride his bindings when he wasnt on the boat he they come back and his bindings were broken and he was pissed. the kid didnt even say sorry about it. so my friend used my setup and bc his foot was a bit wider on the toe area it broke them in and made the super comfortable but did not loosen it so much that i couldnt ride them.
