I got the new Lamar Fixx board and Lamar Payoff bindings for this season what do you think about those :P?

[HoyalBoardCompany]

@arik218 Lamar Fixx with Payoff bindings a bit more of a freeride type setup, bindings and boards are both slightly stiffer flexing side giving you more response and stability at higher speeds. As far as personal opinion on that setup, we don't carry Lamar so we don't get out on their products very often. We are big fans of Union. Lamar has a long history in snowboarding Union is binding specific and has more research, development, testing behind their bindings. Thanks for the question man.

hey i just picked up a capita stairmaster 148 with orange union force bindings it looks pretty nice but i havent got a chance to ride it yet what do you think bout it?

I just picked up a 154 K2 Fastplant. I'm looking for a binding that will work well with the board and be used mostly for mountain free-riding (tricks) and park. My thoughts were Union Force or Ride Rodeo. Any other ideas? What size (I wear an 8wide Salomon Synapse). Cheers!

I just got the new Lib Tech TRS board and I was just looking into some new bindings to put onto it. I've been leaning towards the Union Force binding. I ride a lot of both powder and hard packed. I'm an aggressive rider, and I'm currently riding the Forum Republic binding.

What are your thoughts?
