Good for groomed, level ground. Hard in back country

I ride the 2009 CTX and love the ease of hopping straight onto the hill right off a lift when I'm on groomed runs at Boyne Mt (MI) but the binding was a bit of a problem when riding Blue Sky Basin (Vail, CO) and Breckenridge (CO) back country due to the uneven ground. The straps have a super-grip rubber covering that makes them super difficult to unstrap inbetween runs when the ground isn't level enough to cinch easily. Very comfortable, responsive ride when strapped correctly.

How do these compare to flows? ive had the Flows M11 for the past few years and i cant stand them. the top plate moves around, cant get a tight fit and they can be hard as hell to get into not to mention impossible to get into when your half way down a face. i need something that allows me to strap in quick and easy on top of the hill as well as anywhere else on the slope. does the cam allow easy tight fit with rear entry? and how well does it compare to conventional bindings using the ankle strap? appreciate any and all info.

good bindings, not light weight

These bindings are not light-weight as the description would suggest. they are very well made and sturdy, allowing for excellent control of your riding but take some time to set up properly. if you are in deep snow, they are a pain to "step" into. for steep/deep riding, there are probably better options out there unless you use them like a regular strap in binding. I used them all last season and was happy with them despite the weight/bulk and the time I had to spend setting them up so that they were easy to step into. bigger boots may have issues with stepping in easily fyi...

the bindings are strong and durable, take a lot of abuse, and are very customizable and comfortable. They are very HEAVY and difficult to strap back up when putting your boot back into them. practically impossible to use the rear boot entry in deep snow or while sitting. I believe there are better options out there for the money.
Change me.
