cliff 0 Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 Anyone? I don't really know that much about equipment and just kinda interested on what kind of stuff I should be thinking of buying? Thanks cliff Link to post Share on other sites
danz 0 Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 hey cliff... don't know much about snowboarding...but for skiing i can help you out... bindings are kind of like your life-line...it is the device that either keeps you on your skiis, or bails you out when things get hairy...bad bindings are likely to release when you don't want too, or keep you locked in when you should be out...these can make for very dangerous situations... as for performance issues, they also can make a difference...newer generation bindings are really fancy these days with extra pivots and such to interfere less with the flex of the ski...some of them are used to actually stiffen the ski more...and some have variable switches to accomplish both... basically, boots and skiis are going to have more of an impact on how you turn, and your bindings will have more of an impact on how long you can turn (read: torn acl v. happy knees) hope that helps... danz Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 I bought cheap and fancy Belligerent bindings and have been regretting it ever since. Link to post Share on other sites
Wizz 11 Posted June 20, 2002 Share Posted June 20, 2002 Yes they do, cliff. Always go for quality stuff if you can. Goes without saying really. Link to post Share on other sites
oo 1 Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 I missed this one. Yes good bindings do make a difference, and you'll notice it more if you are a jozu rider. Always get as good equipment as you can. That's all, as my previous boss used to say ALL THE TIME Link to post Share on other sites
Matt 0 Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 Good snowboard bindings are more comfortable and less constrictive meaning warmer feet and less pain. They are also more responsive meaning better turns and generally last longer. Its worth it! Link to post Share on other sites
akibun 0 Posted August 1, 2002 Share Posted August 1, 2002 Like this thing I don't really know. I only ever had 2 binding and they both seem fine for me? Is there big difference? I don't know! Link to post Share on other sites
