Binding Recommendation for Ride Concept UL - Snowboarding Forum

whitekrank · 11-16-2010, 03:28 PM

I just picked up a 2010 Ride Concept UL and I need some bindings to match. I mainly ride on groomed trails as fast as I can. I hit jumps and intend on going bigger. I won't be jibbing.

I mainly ride in big bear but I will be making a longish trip to colorado and a few trips to tahoe and mammoth this season.

Right now I'm considering the Rome 390 bosses or Flux SF45.

I'm open to any suggestions or opinions. If it is something from last season that I can get on sale that would be even better.

The Concept UL a stiff bombing board. Rome 390's will be too soft. I'd go for their Targa or Arsenal. Or Flux SF45 or Ride SPi.

Rome's website says the arsenal is the old boss design. The old boss design was stiffer than the new one?

The Boss is new for 10/11. There is no "old boss" design.

Any NXT's or SF45's.

oops, i mean it says the arsenal is the same as the old 390. And I thought the 390 and 390 boss were mostly the same except for the canted pads.
