Help Please!!! Bindings question - Snowboarding Forum

sashosik · 10-18-2011, 12:30 PM

Last season I have been riding 2010 burton cartels and all off season I've been planning to get brand new 2012 cartels for the up coming season. But now I have been offered BURTON C60 bindings of 2009 which are worth a lot and are brand new also only for 150 dollars. What should I do, will brand new 2012 cartels be better than 2009 C60's? C60's right now are worth over 300 dollars

first off this is posted in the wrong section, but second off, depends on the style of riding you doo!

are you mainly park?
All mountain?
Hardcharging groomers?
Powder riding?

also size and weight would help as well...and the board your using them with... just give us as much info as possible!

Sorry I posted in the wrong section, I have no idea. I just wanna know which one is more worth it. I do alot of things, but park is my home, but I still have to go through a lot of things and I love everything else too. Just which one of the two is a better all around bindings

stick with the cartels, c60s are freeride bindings, very stiff=not good in park

agree...the c60 is a super stiff binding for the park. While it may be a good deal financially, what's the point if you're not going to enjoy riding it?

I spend most of my time in the park and I'm rocking some 2012 Cartel's for this year. I love how quick and easy it is to adjust the forward lean of the highback.
