I can't decide between this board or an Omatic Extr-Emo. I like to ride a little bit of everything on the mountain but im starting to lean more towards park. Also has anyone tryed the Ride Contraband Snowboard Bindings? Im thinking bout getting thoughs to? Thanks

I would say go for the Postermania as I demoed this years for a few days. And all I have to say is its one of the smoothest, catch-free board ive ever been on. The flex is suuuper crazy, but still manages to keep up on groomers and some steeps. Great in the pow tho and in trees, and the response is sick too. And as for the Contrabands, they are good but me personally, I wouldnt get them. If you wana biding thats gonna last you many seasons go for a pair of Unions. If you want a lil more stiffer binding then go for the Forces or Datas. Personally I have a pair of '10 Contacts and they are suuuper comfy. You almost feel as if the binding isnt even there. When you match Rome and Union together they are the ULTIMATE combo. Hope this helps bro
