alright i am a serious jibber like i jib most things i see on the side of the trails. weather it be a tree,stump,snowgun rocks you name it i jib that shit and my problem is i fuck up my boards and bindings a lot. i have already broke my 05/06 mfm pros and my lib tech i got last season in may. so my friend has a sapient board he only used 5 times last season because it is too big from him (he is very small) and i was wondering if any one of you have ever ridden one of these bitches its a sick deal $250 for the board and 05/04 technine mfm pros. i might sell the bindings and buy bent metal bindings cause i have heard good shit about them. so if you have ever ridden a sapient board or bent metal bindings tell me if you like them/good or bad and whatever you know about them

my friend is sponsored by sapient, and she often complains of its jibbing capabilities.

actually (and i hate to say it) i think the best bindings out this year are the airblaster bindings. but as to answer your question i dont know anything about sapient, but i dont like bent metal bindings i had nothing but problems with them at the demo. the kept freezing up and i didnt find them respnsive at all. my suggestion would be the airblasters like i said or the drake team(formerly the mikey lablanc model) i would tend to stay clear of bent metals.

i have flux binders, they have held up pretty well so far, first year on them. no issues, i like them. lots of hate in the industry, but they hook up my club, so i'm all for them

My snowskate has bent metal bindings, but i have never seen bent metal snowboard bindings. I would stick with forum bindings, theyre the shit. and rome boards
