I have the Malavita bindings 2010 L. My issue is that the backs of are too angled and it forces me to bend my legs considerably. Is there a comparable binding to the Malavita that doesn't have as much angle on the backs? or more flexible? My board is a 2009 Burton Custom V-Rocker. Id like to just mountain ride and these binding let me do that for about 5 minutes until they start hurting because the backs are making my half squat. Any suggestion for alternate bindings would be appreciated. Thanks!

Are you sure you have properly adjusted your forward lean? I ride high end binders (c60s) but have always preferred zero forward lean. You should be able to adjust your backs to be parralell with your heel side edge: two screws loosened and rotate w two hands. Then use the dial to zero.

Thanks but I don't think the Rome's will be compatible with the EST's

You could look at the Rome 390 BOSS that have the adjustable cantering options.
