What is a Traditional Toe Strap- A Toe Strap that goes over the top of your foot where your foot meets your toes. Here is an example of what you will see on the review page We decided to change the rating system from #'s to something that is a little easier for us. So for 2011 this will be the new rating system. |

Toe Response- How well will the binding turn the board on your toe edge.
Lateral Movement- Can you move well up and down the length of the board.
Adjustability- How much can you make this your own binding? How well does the forward lean, toe strap, ankle strap, base plate & high back adjust? Is it tool-less or does it require a tool? 5 is this is incredibly adjustable and 1 is this binding is pretty much the way it is.
Dampening- How well does the binding handle at speed. 5 is there is little to no chatter at high speed. 1 is chatter binding at about any speed.
Shock Absorption- Does it have alot of padding to handle hard landings, rough runs and keep your knees intact.
Board / Boot Integration- How well does the binding make your ride part of your body? Most people have bindings boards and boots from different companies and its important to have it all work well together. The better your gear integrates the better you will ride.
Flex- Does the Boot Flex like a ski boot or an old school sorrel?
If your foot doesn't feel good it's painful,and your gonna have a bad time. Feet are soo different and soo hard to please. When you have something tightly wrapped around your lower leg and foot for 6 to 9 hours things that you wouldn't notice in the shop can become horribly painful. Take your time, tighten them up right and hang out a while in them. Its not about what boot is the coolest or the best its just about finding something that fits your feet.
