As the title says, i need some help hahaha

there are so many choices now for bindings!!! i rode a lot in high school, but that was 8+ years ago and things have gotten super tech since then!

I just grabbed a 156 K2 WWW from 2011 and am looking for some bindings to go with it. my riding will probably be 60-70% park and 30-40% cruising groomers. I'm 6'1" and about 200 lbs +-5lbs. If you need any more information please let me know!

Thanks in advance! looking for some opinions before i head to a brick and mortar shop.

k2 auto uprises. they are a little stiffer freestyle binding which will compliment your size. i really like the auto system and build quality of k2. rome 390s are another choice.

No problem. It's what I use. I even flirted with selling them and getting a new set but that's because I didn't know how to set them up. There's a youtube video on how to set them up I suggest watching them if you can. All the reviews of the binding has been positive. They're well made. They're very comfy due to canting and harshmellow. And once set up, very easy to get in and out of. For around $130-140 I think they're a steal.
