Me: Riding 23 years. Vermont on Alpine gear for many years, then moved to Cali 12 years ago and ride Tahoe exclusively. Boots; Burton malamute. Last 10 years freecarving on a Palmer Honeycomb with Flow Bindings. Powder Days Burton Malolo with Drake Podium bindings. Aluminum base carbon highback. Okay jsut picked up a slightly used Demo Jones Flagship (not the carbon version). This is a curent 2013/2014 model. I have not ridden ths board yet. QUESTION: I need to put new bindings on this board as my flows broke last day of the season last year. Considering: 2014 Burton Diode, 2014 Flux DM, 2014 Flow NX2 RS, 2014 Union Charger. Anyone use any of these? I live in Santa Cruz and there isnt a whole lot you can pick up and actually check out binding wise around here. Even in San Jose pretty limited. Sales staff?? Ya right. I used to be a big fan of the Flows but they did seem to cause lots of pressure on the top of the feet when really cranked down. I never tried the new toe cap strap deisgn on most all soft bindings. People say that it really locks you in? Should I stick with Flow or move on. Kind of sick of all there moving parts. What bindings do you use on your freeriding boards and how do they hold up?
