Salty Peaks Staff Picks: Bindings

We asked our staff what bindings they are stoked on this year, and here’s what they said…

Rome 390 Boss Bindings Jake’s pick is: Rome 390 Boss Bindings. “Shred til dead on the biggest boss in the game! The 390’s are the perfect combo of flex and support for riding everywhere. I take these in the park on the regs, then throw them on my powder board for response and epic slashes. The Bosses come with the Yes I Can’t footbeds that add a ton of comfort to the ride, as well as the V-Rod baseplate for a more natural board feel. Get buck on the Boss!”
Drew says, “I would pick the Burton Malavita EST Bindings, especially the Sulfur colorway, because they look sweet, have awesome straps, perfect flex, and are guaranteed to bring your street cred up. The Burton Cobrashark! Bindings (Mud Shark Colorway with the winged hi-back) are a cheaper yet equally as cool version of the Malavita, the poor man’s Cadillac, also guaranteed to make you nearly 1.5 times cooler than you previously were in the snowboard world.

Ride Rodeo Bindings Carl picks the Ride Rodeo Bindings and the Burton Mission Bindings. About the Ride Rodeo bindings, he says, “This year I am super hyped on the Ride Rodeo. The highback from last year’s Delta gives the perfect blend of forgiving flex and support when you need it. The Rodeo also features the super popular Delta ankle strap, so it will hardly feel like you’re strapped in at all! The straps are also highly customizable so you can easily achieve the perfect fit to your boot. Ride’s lifetime warranty program is the icing on cake for this binder. Get down on the Rodeo this year, and remember why you got into snowboarding!”
Zac’s pick is the Burton Prophecy Re:Flex Bindings. He says, “A direct descendant from the infamous CO2’s, the Prophecy adds 70% more flex to any board with the Re:Flex tech, regardless of mounting pattern. B3 gel keeps the landings soft and the new Reactstrap with the Gettagrip Capstrap keeps the feet firmly in place without having to over tighten your straps, keeping the blood flowing to keep you going! If you are looking for a rear-entry binding he recommends the Gnu Mutant Fastec Bindings because of it’s Lift Release features that allows you to loosen your strap while riding the lift.

Flow NXT-ATSE Bindings Jerry is pumped on the Flow NXT-ATSE Bindings. He says, “I like the Flow NXT-ATSE because it is a super light weight, ultra responsive rear entry binding that relieves pressure points associated with most traditional two-strap bindings.
Devin says, “The new Burton Diode EST Bindings are the lightest bindings on the market today with carbon fiber high-backs and baseplates. This binding also features a hinged heel hoop to give you a greater range of motion and the ability to pre-load your board for more pop. Everything on this binding has be minimized and reduced to make it lighter. But don’t be fooled, even though this binding may be ultra light its still very strong and responsive.

Ride Rodeo Bindings Josh is also stoked on the Ride Rodeo Bindings. He says, “The Rodeos are plenty responsive having an aluminum chassis, with canted Wedgie pads that save your knees by aligning all your joints. The reason these are super fun though, is the highback. The highback is stiffer at the bottom for ultimate response, and softer up top so it will never hinder your super poked tuck-knees and stales.
Randy picks the Burton Cartel Re:Flex Bindings. He says, “So my choice for bindings this season is the Burton Cartel Re:Flex. This is the one binding that can handle it all. From park/pipe to all mountain shred, the Cartel Re:Flex is a must have for that ripper who rides it all and shreds it hard. With Burton’s new Re:Flex technology, you get more flex in the dead zone under foot, giving you more flexibility and more of a “skate feel.” New this season is the “Autocant” foot bed that automatically cants to the weight and pressure of your body, allowing a more relaxed, natural stance while riding. Needless to say, I am hyped on this binding and can’t wait to get mine! Priced at $230.00, this binding is our number one seller and we have a hard time keeping it on the shelves. If that might be a little out of your price range, I also highly recommend the Ride EX Bindings. This light weight, aircraft grade aluminum binding is a great alternative and is loaded with features.” Burton Cartel Re:Flex Bindings
AND FOR THE LADIES…
Burton Lexa Re:Flex Bindings Ellery picks the Burton Lexa Re:Flex Bindings and says, “Lightweight and really comfortable. Rachets are always smooth and durable. Re:Flex allows your board to flex under foot but you can still mount these bindings to any board. If you are looking for and even lighter weight binding and have a Burton board with the channel, check out the Burton Lexa EST Bindings.”
Erin recommends the Rome Strut Bindings. She says, “No matter what binding you choose in the Rome lineup, they all kill it. The Strut, in particular, with its combination of glass impregnated nylon and metal, allows for flexibility while still maintaining its poppy feel. The straps themselves are also super comfy and easy to adjust without tools. If you are looking for an all-around great binding… look no further!” Rome Strut Bindings
Burton Escapade Re:Flex Bindings Libby says, “The Burton Escapade Re:Flex Bindings have all the comfort and support you would expect from a top of the line Burton binding. The tru-fit highback, cushy straps, and autoCANT fullBED hold you in all the right places, and wont let you down. Bottom line, I love this binding because it’s responsive, comfortable, and looks great.
Steph says, “I really want to try out the rear-entry technology featured in the Gnu B-Famous Fastec Bindings. This binding has all the goods, but with a non-traditional rear-entry made for speedy entry and exit.” Gnu B-Famous Fastec Bindings
Ride DVa Bindings Kate picks the Ride DVa Bindings. She says, “My favorite thing about these is the wedgie footbeds because they’re easy on your knees and make your stance feel more natural. I also love Ride’s Thin Grip rubber mesh toe straps.  They have bomber hold unlike other brands where the toestraps always seem to slip up or down.”
Kerri is stoked on the Burton Escapade EST Bindings. She says, “These bindings are a smoooooth ride. What I love most about them is the adjustablitity, you can really dial in your preferences to ensure the best and most comfortable fit possible.” Burton Escapade EST Bindings
