Hey guys thinking about getting new flow step in bindings? How do you like them? any positives or negatives? they seem so convenient. thanks. peace.:thumbsup:
Quick question for all you flow binding users. My friend who started snowboarding last year bought some flow flite 2 bindings and is having trouble.
1) She can't yet balance standing still on the snow so she is struggling to get into the binding.
its near impossible whilst sitting down. I am recommending she find something she can grab hold of so she can strap in while standing up.
Any other advice?
2)Clipping them shut at the back requires quite a bit of strength. She is 61 and by no means a powerhouse although she is not feeble either. I have them in my hand now and it does seem to take more effort than it should to clip it shut on the highback.
Do they just need to be broken in? any other tips?
I didn't read entire post so....why is she sitting down to put them on???still doesn't solve her problem of getting her feet into the bindings while sitting down.
The story changes a little each time you post.Hit a harmless tree while riding in jackson and one of my flows literally shattered into no less than 10 pieces.
Advancing intermediate here. FWIW, bought some Ride EXs and Flow the Fives at the same time coupla seasons ago. Took me a day or two to dial the Flows in. Once I got used to the Flows, I tried riding the Flows and EXs back to back (same board) a day at a time to see if I could tell the difference. Couldn't. Sold my EXs. All I have now is two pairs of Flows for my quiver....
Yes they aren't for everyone, there are pro's/con's to every product in life. A well stated case will help each member make an informed decision.
Yup, like their customer service but like the reliability of the bindings better :thumbsup::thumbsup:. Haven't had a problem except for stripping screw heads and such (user error). Even then, Flow was quick to send me replacement screws....
I truly enjoy mine for the speed and my customer service was super. Just my experience, so now someone can read both our opinions and make an informed choice on what is best for them. That is all we can do to help.
Nor have I, my 1st pair had the power strap and to undo the ratchets is no more difficult than a pair of traditional bindings. The new design is even easier.Haven't been stuck in deep powder (yet) where I can see the Flows becoming a liability. Will get me a pair of two-strappers when I find myself in those conditions on a regular basis. Untill then, no wet butt, ride off with my skier buddies... :yahoo:
I agree. It's like railing a floppy vagina. Except with your cheesy grin, I lose any and all forms of arousal. Like I mentioned before, I wasn't knocking on your fucking preference. But since you're so eager to keep this up, lets go.Keep coming back for more. This is cheaper than movie tickets.
