My main focus will be jumps, the rails/boxes come as second.
I heard the Ride Deltas fit these traits pretty well but they're sooo much more expensive than the two Rome's I listed (like 60$ more than the 390's WTH?!).
Both Ride and Rome build good bindings. The Delta's, IMO, are similar to the Targas in terms of flex. Ride has had issues with their ratchets and Rome has had issues with their base plates/discs. If I had the choice, I'd pick the Rome's just given that they are $60 cheaper and they have an impecable reputation for customer service.
Id go with the targas, they are more expensive but I love my targas
You can change the stiffness of the bindings, and you cannot do that with the 390s.
I ride the park almost everyday and my Targa's have held up well
The 390's are good bindings too, but id recommend spending the extra cash and getting the targas!
i have both and i prefer the 390's. the targa for my style of riding (more freestyle) just felt a bit too stiff. the 390's more comfortable and flexible to the pt i don't even realize they are on
Can't go wrong eiter way. I've had several sets of both an loved them. Go with the Targa if you weigh over, let's say something like 170lb. or if you ride aggressively outside the park. If you're a lightweight or park rat, then 390 for sure. +1 on their cust svc too...they just sent me new '10 toe straps for my '09 Targas.
Wider stance it aligns the knees to be in correct position with the hips. For myself since I don't ride gangster wide stances it gives more lift on the outside of my feet allowing for better power transition to my nose and tail for pop.
When I switched to reverse camber my knee issues decreased a lot. I do know that canting the bed will help out a bit with alignment and fix things a bit.
Ya know, I hadn't thought about that until you mentioned it, but I have noticed that I don't have nearly as many knee issues when riding my Evo-R as when I'm riding my Heritage.
Yeah I started noticing after I fully switched to riding reverse that my knees didn't swell up after a typical day in the park and I could extend my riding a few more hours if I wanted to.
Super serious like ass cancer. I just find it funny that once I make that post the fucking fluffy bunny hugger douche bags have to come on and be all you're evil and mean and that's just rude blah blah blah. Sack the fuck up kids are too soft.
