Hey guys,

I am looking for a new set of bindings since my 2006 cartels broke this year. I am riding a 2010 Rome Mod and am looking for an all mountain freestyle binding that will compliment my board well and will handle anything I throw at them. If you guys have any other opinions id love to hear them but as of right now I have it down to these two.

Thanks again for your help much appreciated

Surprised nobody mentioned the 2011 Burton Cartels look to be the nicest all mountain binding. I went to a few local shops yesterday and they looked very sleek lightweight and a good bang for your buck. Unions also has some slick looking bindings but the force lacked the rotating highback and the very nice toe strap the the cartels offered. The targas didnt look too great to me. I much porefered the look of the 390 boss but just thought I would throw that out there.

Burton is overrated, I really loved them and had cartels 05/06 but now its time to stop. Channel system? Come on how much more "Sony memory stick" can you be?

I got myself some Targas. Feels solid, a bit more support than the Cartel and looks much nicer to me. Hell, I started out on aluminum bindings in 1996 so I really like the hybrid concept. The rubber gasket will not fawk up your boards when you take them off, makes for a better resale value of the board. Build quality is really awesome and you are supporting a core company. Its a tried and tested binding that got upgraded. Cant is already included so you can try it or leave it.

Support the little guy because little guys RULE.
