Salomon wide boot wearers - what binding are you using? - Snowboarding Forum

Johnny T · 12-26-2010, 05:14 PM

Thinking about picking up some new bindings this year to replace my 08 Relay XLT's that have seen better days. Just want to see what other sasquatch footed riders are using.

FWIW they will go on an SL-R.

Whatever u want or will work for you and your riding style. Just be sure bindings are wide enough for your wide boot.
I'm using L/XL Forces with my 8.5US Dialogue Wide because of width.
For SL I suggest Rome 390 boss for more park, Rome Targa for more allmountain/freeride also check K2/Ride lineup (Formula,Indy,Alpha or Delta). Some people here really like Flux bindings, so take a look at them.

Flux bindings seem to have a slighty wider foot print than most bindings, so that might be something to look into.

That is one of the issues - no local place as a lot of selection. One place does have 390's and Targa's so that is covered. Union and Flux are two of the other top choices (along with Salomon because I am familiar with them) but no local place has any of them. It looks as they I may be in the clear with any of the choices.

I have Salomon Savages and I use a GNU Mutant 2011 Binding, with backdoor action (that's what she said). Works like a charm, blazingly fast to get in and out of. Uses a toe cap, instep strap opens when the back drops.

Salamon Malamutes.
2 pair of Rome Targas on 2 SL-Rs.
This is my 3rd season running this combo, & I can't speak highly enough about all the components .

Nice! I went ahead and ordered the Targa's and am waiting on them to get here. Supposed to be here Friday and hopefully I can get out this weekend to try them out.
