Lord of Ruts,
If you have a 1994 catalog in good condition, how does $25 sound?

Thanks Dan, I'm looking to buy a 1994 catalog. I have a 1994 board and I want a catalog for that year. I checked out the website you posted a link for and it seems that the 1994 catalog is only in French.
Live long and dig deep!

Looking to buy a 1994 Burton Catalog.
-
I'm interested in the Burton Physics race plates (#5), Burton cant with 3D & 4x4 centers (#6) and a set of the Burton metal discs (#7). Are any of these still for sale?

I have ridden both hard boots (Burton Reactors) and stiff soft boots (Burton Drivers) on my all mountain/freeride boards. I prefer stiff soft boots since they are more comfortable and a bit more forgiving edge to edge than a hard boot. As far as bindings, I bought a pair of Flow bindings a few years ago and did not like the boot/binding fit (sloppy) so I returned them. I currently use K2 Cinch step-in bindings on my all mountain board (Burton BMC 166). I recommend K2 over Flow step-ins mainly because the K2 Cinch is more like a standard non-step-in binding and therefore you can easily adjusted them once they are on. I added Burton toe caps to my K2 Cinches for even a better fit and the toe caps make it even easier to step into the binding. With the toe caps I just loosen the top strap a little to make it easier getting into and out of the binding and can easily crank them down for a tight fit once they are on. I have the older Cinch bindings with the metal base and the only downside is that they are a bit heavy for a softboot binding. I'm an older guy and prefer step-ins since I don't have to sit down to put the bindings on. I need to save my energy for the ride down!
Stiff is sometimes better than hard!
