So after a nice long search on here i haven't been able to find an answer to my question. I'm shopping for new bindings for my 2014 burton process. I want to get some burtons missions and i noticed that the est missions are more expensive than the non est but the non est come with a disk that allows them to be used on a board with the channel system anyway. if i get a new board later the non est will be able to be used on that board too. the est ones can't. so basically my question is: are the est binding worth the amount of extra money and the fact that they can only be used with a channel board? is there some big difference in feel between est and non est?
yes there is a diff. est has more feel for board and cushining then w/o est version.
I would get the non-est to use on other boards if you switch boards for demo or trying friends boards.
the union contact or contract pro will give you almost the same feel for cheaper and better depending on your price point or the union force if you plan on doing mt. to .
I only buy burtons. its not a buyest thing i just feel really comfortable on them. i mean if another board was brought to me and it was nice i would use it but i am just a big fan of burtons all mountain boards. so any other board i get would be a channel board. so if est binding are that much better ill just get the missions.
Also what does soft or stiff flex mean on bindings?
