Strength:

everything. these are the 2003 models. sweet

Weakness:

none

Best binding i've used so far. Great support, good features, and easy to use straps. Bindings give you lots of support, but are amazingly comfortable with a mid-flex. They look good and are a great price if you look around.

i got these bindings after my Flows crapped out, i only had them for a year and i snapped the bottom in half!! then i got these at D F. they are wicked. i have only had one minor problem with them.............. the stap screws come loose and once when i was strapping up one of em fell off. so i got screws threaded oppostily and they were fine. i just pulled of my backflip 540 with these puppies. these are awsome bindings, step ins don't even compare.

Strength:

Comfort, easy to release

Weakness:

Binding is slightly smaller than how a Burton binding fits.

Great Binding. It is alot easier to get in and out of than my Burton CFX bindings. Straps are really comfortable and it is easy and fast to make any adjustment to the binding.

Strength:

Stiff metal arches, solid contact with board, available in red, white, and blue: USA! Excellent customer service; I lost one of my toe ratchets and couldn''t find a replacement in the stores, so I sent an email through the link on their website and they sent me new ratchets. Just make sure you set the bindings up at home and then put LocTite on the screws before you ride. For some reason the ratchet screws had not been pre-treated with LocTite like all the other screws.

Weakness:

No LocTite on ratchet screws.

Great bindings. Straps are easy on/off. Very comfortable in combination with Northwave Kevin Jones boot; no strap pain at all and no heel lift. There is a lot of adjustability; strap position, highback rotation, tool-less forward lean. Both the bindings and boots are light. A little pricier than some other bindings, but the comfort and control are worth the money. Buy these. I would give it five stars, but I haven''t tried enough other products to make a good comparison.

Strength:

Many adjustments available but very easy to adjust on the hill, good response, easy to buckle up and exit (big aluminum ratches are way cool), universal disk allows for decent 3D adjustments, close boot to binding interface is excellent.

Weakness:

Hideous red/yellow color scheme is your worst nightmare. Given the three color schemes available, I can''t imagine that anyone would choose this color by choice unless color blind. I got my pair at a sweet discount which only somewhat eased the pain of having THE ugliest binding on the mountain. These colors are a big joke and clash with every stick available. What was Drake thinking???

Fairly light binding, well constructed, good range of adjustments, good performance

Similar Products Used:

Burton Customs (decent), Sims Link (not bad), Burton Freeride (too soft), Burton Race Plates (awesome control and decent flex with hard boots)

Strength:

very good looking...functional

Weakness:

chrome heel loops gets scratched easily

best looking binding too but dont just judge by the look.tall backs but flexy... and the screw covers does have a purpose to it than just showing off when you got them displayed.
