I have to ride about 54/44 on cheap liquid bindings because I'm cursed with huge feet. I found this to work for me but it promotes horrible carving form (sitting on the toilet). I ride an old aggression assault which has about bit the dust. I find it easy to ride bumps and trees and powder, but maybe that comes from me not beingh able to not have fun on the slopes :D . I reccommend not going past 40/25 if you can help it.
