So, I'm after some new bindings to go with my Agent, what do you clowns recommend?

First one to come up with an answer I deem appropriate gets a pint, either against Lincon or Hereford.

The Ride Team snowboard bindings have really nice ratchets that are both easy to crank down and easy to release. The straps are comfortable and the aluminum baseplate has plenty of shock absorbing pads for comfort landing big tricks.

I've considered those, but I'm not sure they're for me.

Still, you're favourite for the pint after that.

Good effort Sam, however I am wary of the longevity of the cinches - they are clearly a good idea in that they combine the best of both the 'step-in' and two strap binding worlds, but unfortunately they are said to be unreliable and fall apart too often.

i'll give you a don't buy;salomon sp2 - the twisted back plate looks an interesting idea that might help you whip the foot round over a jump, but the constant  pushing into your leg just above the ankle when you are going down the piste really gets on your nerves after a bit.

Of course if you were looking for 'binding agents' eggs and chocolate are very good for those special types of cake

OK, ta.

Stuff like this is a right old pain to buy, good fun but a pain.

You have to be very discerning and bide your time - you dont want to be spending money on something that looks like a Ferrari but drives like a Citroen AX.

How long you been riding the sp2s?
