Replying to Snowboard bindings

I posted this in the snowboard cult, but I didn't get much help there. Only two posts. I know this is a ski site! But I'm hoping some mature individuals who know a bit about snowboard bindings can give me some good recommendations:

I plan on trying to get a whole new set up this year. I already know which board and boots I want...but I just find it hard to think about what I want in a binding. The only thing that stands out to me, is that the plastic straps always break from the wear and tear, and cold. Strapping them on and off a million times a day.

I teach snowboarding full time, so I am out on the hill 5 days a week whether it be teaching or riding.

So, what do you guys look for in a binding, and do you have any recommendations for any strong & durable bindings?

No Burton.
