im debateing this binding, the ride spi, the contraband, or the fluz tt30 , for all mountain riding, im a intermidiate- advance rider, what do u suggest thanks
@56retoocs Hey there, this is actually a video from last season, so there's some new stuff out there to take a look at. Personally, I'm a huge Ride fan, I've had 4 different pairs or Ride bindings over my 13 years of riding and I wouldn't ride anything else. Keep in mind its preference though. For this years models of what you're looking for you'd want to check out the Rodeo and the Capo. These would be the comparable versions of the older bindings you're looking at.
@snowboardsnet thanks!, and well i can get a 2011 delta for $200, and i might order then lib tech pheonix ( mark landvik) or the skate banana, but im more leabing towards the pheonix because im an all mountain rider that wants to do everything, i heard the delta is a very good binding, and is good for everything, and isnt too stiff if u want to hit the park, so what u think?, its either the delta, or the spi, that i can get for $190, thanks :)
@56retoocs Oh the Delta was a great binding. I just didn't know you were able to find last years. The ones I suggested were the models that replaced the Delta and SPI. If you can find your size in them, I would say the SPI is a little more all mountain/freeride oriented. It's a bit stiffer and more responsive. The Delta is more of an all mountain freestyle kind of binding. Its not real stiff at all and would be a little more comfortable in the park.
@56retoocs As for boards, I would skip the skate banana if you're more all mountain oriented. It's just a total noodle and isn't made for charging outside of the park. The Pheonix however is a pretty responsive board and much better for all around riding, but its definitely more of an advanced board.
@snowboardsnet thanks, im pretty sure i got my mind made up on the gnu park pickle, because i heard the pheonix is super stiff, and more of a rly fast pow, cliff drop kinda board, but im looking for a fun kinda fllexy, and i heard the park pickle is a bit stiffer then the skate banana, and with the different heal edge it hold better at high speeds, and the mountain i ride at isnt super steep, so the park pickle should be the best for me, and matched up with some ride delta bindings
@snowboardsnet thanks so much for all your help, the ride delta is the best binding for me i think with the park pickle, and the delta is a really nice looking binding also, im glad i finally go tmy mind made up, thanks a bunch! stoked for the season now! :)
@56retoocs Personally I think the Contraband is a bit on the softer side depending on what you're doing. The Capo a great all around binding though because its fairly responsive and very versatile. The strap on the Rodeo is cored out so it's just a bit more flexible. It really depends how aggressive you plan to get versus if you're looking for something a bit more playful for the park or elsewhere.
