Is it worth it to buy canted bindings/footbeds? I've never ridden on em so i wouldn't know the difference. Since i'm investing in my first board + bindings, are the cants really worth it? Any input is appreciated, thanks

They are nice to have, but I don't think they are necessary by any means. The biggest advantage they give you less stress on you knees and the ability to widen your stance. I have bindings with cants and bindings without cants and the footbeds really don't change how they feel or ride.

Similar thread here. But to sum it up, cant beds are not absolutely necessary but once you have it, makes a world of difference. Now go get one with it.
