Jun

Im looking for the snowboard bindings where the back of them the part that supports your calf flips open and you just slide your foot in them. no strap adjusting. i know k2 makes them. does anybody know what theyre called?

if so are they worth the extra 20 secs that my skiing friends and i have to wait for at the top of a slope to adjust the straps on my standard bindings?
k2s are called Cinch bindings. are they good?

Answer #2

they are called flow bindings. or flux bindings. they in my opinion are not worth the extra time it shaves off. they are like a pound heavier it feels like and they are not as responsive as a normal burton or ride binding. i would suggest that you do not get them and just hurry up on the slope.

The ones where the heelplate folds down are Flow bindings. Ive never tried them but from talking to a friend who owns a board shop I wouldnt bother. Theyve been out for a few years now and they dont dominate so they cant be that great. Theyre heavier and they dont save a big enough amount of time on the hill to make it worth it.

Oh yes… Flow Flow Flow… What can I say? you either love them or you hate them I have both. For baby hills like Mtn. Snow and all the small resorts I use my flows you can literally strap in as your going down the chairlift arch. On the other hand snow can get caught in the buckle part making it close to imposable to get out with gloves on they loosen up and frankly there not the best bindings. Every years we go on a trip to the alps just my dad and I if I used flow then I would die. However it really doesnt matter how long it takes to strap in when you can have a 30 minute run. So the long and short get a set you wont regret it keep your regular straps just in case. But im sure you will love them
Im glad I could help or at least i hope i did
Thanks for you time man
