What bindings should i get for my snowboard?

• Im trying to decide between the click in ones and, the flow bindings, and everyone i have asked has said to absolutely not get one of them so i really dont know what to get

• Answer:

  It depends on what you're looking to get out of your bindings. I see plenty of former skiers who use Flow Bindings, since they are used to very little down time off the lifts, and don't like to have to wait to strap in. However, you do sacrifice some performance going with Flow bindings, since they have more give in the highbacks, and don't cradle your boots as well as traditional strap bindings. I prefer Burton or Drake bindings, but depending on your price range, you can get a very nice and responsive Burton binding that you can use for years. Check out either the Burton Customs (mens) or the Burton Lexa (womens). They both have adjustable forward lean in the highbacks, and give you the Burton Capstraps, which pull your foot into the binding as well as pushing your foot down. This system helps eliminate the hesitation when switching into heelside and the loss of circulation in your toes from cranking them down too hard.
