redrabit Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 I just grabbed these at a local sale and thought someone here could put them to good use. I do not know the exact model of these, but as I recall these were made for use as rentals with the adjustable cam running thru the center. I know these are not recommended for larger adult riders because of the plastic construction, but I thought they could be useful for a teaching/club environment (for kids). Anyhow, you all will know more about them than I. I have two pair, both of them new with 3-hole discs, one pair has yellow "bumpers" and one has neon green ones. I assume they have differing densities. $60 each pair plus shipping from IL 60014. Paypal is good for me. If it concerns you my auction acct ID is redrabit1 and I have perfect feedback.

SEJ Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 I've never seen a pair of these in person, but with the aluminum baseplate they should be as stout as a pair of Burton performance bindings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawndoggy Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 The toe bail is the the weak point because when they break they can't be replaced because the toe block is riveted together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernie00 Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 Toe bail... they can be replaced. I have the same bindings and broke a toe bail 2 years ago. I ordered from http://www.upzboots.com/bindings.html the snowpro Toe bail and they fit like a glove, they use a screw to put them one so it's very simple.

paragonUE Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 could they be mounted on a board with a 4 hole pattern? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrabit Posted October 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 There's no reason you couldn't use a 4x4 plate on these bindings. I do not have any 4-hole plates, but they are readily available at a local shop that sells Burton equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingCrimson Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 I have these babies, Bobdea and I concluded they are Performance bindings. Obviously not stiff at all, but they haven't broken on me. Mine have a replaced toe-bail, the previous owner drilled out the rivets and put in some stainless screws and locknuts on the bottom. Works just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sintered Man Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 Are the baseplates with these bindings the metal ones? I suspect not but I can't really tell from the Pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carvedog Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 I know these are not recommended for larger adult riders because of the plastic construction, but I thought they could be useful for a teaching/club environment (for kids)....... I know the sale is pending with scuff. I have a couple of pairs of these and I am pushing closer to 250 than I would like and I don't have problems. It is a metal base plate, metal to metal rivets and toe block. The plastic part just sits on top and doesn't really affect the ride. I love these on my powder rides. I just never adjust them too tight and they don't break for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
