Yes they have an asymetrical color scheme. There are a few different bidings that do this. You can get them in all black. The nose and tail of your board most likely aren't the same. why should your bidings be?

that's why i bought the cyan union force's...really glad i went that route.

cars with 2 tone paint jobs don't look cool either, not sure where that idea came from.

i can't buy any unions because it isn't available at the store im buying the bindings, so should i go with the regular 390? or to save up a few more $ and buy the targa?

ummm...buy them online? save yourself the tax dollars and a trip to the store. guaranteed your local shop can't get you a better deal after all is said and done.

Cool is only in the eye of the beholder. Forces look like shit in my opinion.

I have both the 2010 390 and Targa and while similar in some respects they are different enough. The Targa isn't really an upgrade over the 390 but rather a different animal which is stiffer and more of an all mountain binding with the 390 being more of a freestyle oriented binding.

IMO the decision between 390 and Targa isn't about money it is about intended use.

I got the 390 Boss and I think they look great with the messed up colorway, they are also very comfy bindings and so glad I got them.

i wish i could find an online shop with normal shipping cost... for now the cheapest shipping cost is 65$ not including taxes... so i can't really buy them online

Yes, it's true, and I agree that it looks like poo.
