NS Evo bindings? - Snowboarding Forum

TailPress · 10-10-2011, 02:18 AM

Hey Everyone! Case is that I am going to be purchasing a Never Summer Evo, and I don't really have any idea what bindings I should buy! I am considering Raiden and Rome (390 Boss) but your advice will definitely help me reinforce my decision. Any opinion or advice you have on any bindings would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! I am looking into park and jibbing with maybe a little bit of jumps but also being able to do some all mtn, (resort riding) too. So like 80% Park, 20% All mtn? Thanks guys!

K2 uprises on mine. But I see a lot of 390/bosses on these sticks as well

i just ordered union forces for my westmark, more all mountain than jib... but the union contacts are nice and soft, also not too expensive

I am not a huge fan of K2, and Union is an option, but are Union a good match with NS??

I have 390's on my Evo, they can handle everything.

A ton of people pair Unions with the Evo. I personally don't like their toe straps and ratchets. Although they said they changed them for the production model (I demoed pre-production).

I have 390 Bosses on mine. Love em.

Burton Cobrasharks are another option. Minimalistic design and solid through and through.

Oh yeah, I also have Burton Hail 9.5 Boots from a few years back! Have no idea what year as I got them used at a pawn shop, haha 60$ for Burton Hails? Had me sold! Which bindings will suit my boots the best?? After seeing the new colors for the 390 boss I think I have a winner!! <33

Without knowing the model year, I can't tell you if your boots have shrinkage tech. I have the 2011 Restricted Hails in 9.5 with shrinkage. I fit them fine into a pair of the L/XL Bosses.

However, I had to make a lot of adjustments on and off the hill to get them fitted perfectly to my boot. Was worth the effort though in my opinion.
