I'm snowboarding this year along with skiing. I have a 157 06-07 Rome board, not sure what kind though. Now I just  need some bindings and boots. I'm looking at last years T9's but I'm not sure about boots. Something around $100. Thanks.

It looks like the Vinyl but it's one of a kind. The graphics are a little different. Its 152 not 157 which I think I said.

the girls lashed is pretty solid, and id go with girls technine bindings. girls specific stuff is girl specific for a reason though,and def worth checking out.

The only thing you can do for boots is to go into the shop and try them on. Just because 32's fit one GUY (not girl) doesnt mean they are right for you.

most definitely, to be honest i bought them sight unseen and never tried them on before off of some random internet site... how is that for taking a chance. they turned out to be pretty much just what i was lookin for, theyre a little too stiff right now but im sure theyll break in. do you know if the liner is heat moldable?

No one has said much about Bindings even though your post asks about both. I prefer/recommend Flows. Especially the newer ones since they have had a large reduction in weight. As always, make sure your boots work with your bindings.

you can pretty much get bindings from any company that are good, everyone has some solid product this year.

heat moldable? not sure, but they are deff warm, and they do break in. honestly my riding improved like 5 times by switching to better boots.

I'm very serious. I actually feel like they add extra support. Maybe you didn't adjust them very well.
