Forum Republic Snowboard Binding - Men's

Good so far

By Ranked #1913 - Bindings July 23, 2009

I picked these up for my new board for this season and also as backups or replacements in case my old Burtons fail me (screws keep coming loose). They may just become my #1 bindings. Even if I can't ride them yet I still opened up the box and made sure they survived shipping and would fit my boots (men's size 9 burton, medium binding).

I am extremely impressed with the quality of these bindings. The straps are snugly and securely attached, everything takes a bit of force to move. These things don't feel flimsy or floppy. Once I had the footbed lengthened and straps approximately located, I put the boot on and strapped in with my foot in the boot. Man these bindings are plush. I tightened them down as much as I could and didn't feel an pressure points, unlike my old bindings. These things lock you down but don't seem to punish you for it.

I can't wait to ride these this winter.
