How to Snowboard : Snowboard Edges & Bindings

[1424241]

Lazy people like me might be a fan of step-ins and Flow bindings. I have a pair of step-ins and a pair of ratchets. I prefer my step-ins.

The pros of the step-ins: they are quicker, and don't require you to sit in the snow. Cons: I have personally noticed more strain on my legs when on an edge and some of them require special boots. I've never seen anyone have their board fall off with step-ins. Doesn't mean it doesn't happen though.

Ratchets provide control at the cost of time to strap in.

How about Burton step in with racket on the boot, a rigid back and a strap to stop me killing people below the chair.

@FuzzySid1 stepins suck dont buy them

Well, if the board comes off and hits someone below you, you could say ratchets are safer i guess. I prefer ratchets, some people hate rigid backs, but i find it helps in controlling, especially if your just starting out.
