I'm getting a board for next season, and I don't know what bindings to hook it up with. What are some good park/pipe bindings whatever price it is?

i think that the best thing that burton makes are their bindings. I would also consider union bindings and ive heard good things about flux's. I didnt like my drake bindings at all.

yup yup, fuck burton mein get some Union bindings. Im rocking hte Union Datas, they are so comfy, the response is amazing. If i were you i would check out Union (Forces Datas), Salomon, Rome (Arsenal, 390s), and definately Technine (Team, MFM).

Burton sucks, dont get em. I have also heard good things about Union's but i havent ridden them. Check out T9's and also Forum's. I know burton makes Forum ughhhh whatever, they are good bindings and especially next years are way rad they are super comfy, awesome response, better toe straps, they are sick. Check em out.

I have last year's Rides, but their higher end ones are stiffer, and I hear their lower end ones are absolutely terrible, especially this year. So don't get those...

ha me to... i have larges and i had to tighten the ankle strap down real far and now it interferes with the putting down of the hi back....It causes the straps to break... it sucks and annoys people at ski check... thats my only complaint about Burton bindings

go with the MFMs, they are comfortable and i think they have leather on them. theres a lifetime warranty on all parts so if anything goes wrong, you'll get a new pair or replacement part. the MFMs also can turn into a toe cap so thats nice. as i said before look into Union bindings (force, datas) and Rome (390, arsenal)

Yea, new ones are Much better. The new technology reduces a lot of weight. The mini-ratchet's fix a lot of problems people were having with them too.

I just got some Burtons Cartels. Gonna try them out in 2 weeks, next time i go up. We'll see how the are. Before I had 03 Burton Missions, they hurt my feet, but i thought thats how they were supposed to be.

I agree, I liked my cartels a lot. I was worried about the forward lean thing hurting my calves, but then I didn't feel any pain back there. It might be because my previous bindings had some steep forward lean and so my legs were already used to it. But the cartels were super comfy and responsive. I enjoyed riding a lot. I'm interested in Rome 390's but I already spent enough money this season and the Cartels are good enough for me right now.

that board should be a lot of fun, but ive never ridden 390's but they look pretty good. I have some older cartels like a bunch of the people here and they work wonders
