how do I make Rome Targas feel more like 390 Bosses? - Snowboarding Forum

how do I make Rome Targas feel more like 390 Bosses? Just take the inserts out of the heel straps? Do I need to reposition the heel straps too?

Or just buy some 390 Bosses?

Hey Borborygmii

The best way to get a 390-ish feel with the Targas is to remove the C-Flex inserts from the ankle strap. It'll be a softer flex, more similar to the 390 ankle strap.

It won't feel exactly the same, but that's as close as you can get without picking up a pair of 390 Bosses. Both bindings come with the ankle straps in the center position out of the box. You could move them to the forward position but it won't affect the flex very much, it's mostly just for sizing.

I have a Targa question...

How in the F do you get the Yes-I-Can't beds back into the bindings?

I had to switch out my gf and I's bindings (I put my Targas on her board, and took my old cartels back to my board) and it was a pain to 1. get the screw out of the middle of the cant beds, and 2. get the cant beds to go back in without being crooked.

Am I missing something here?

I mean... it was cold and my fingers almost stopped working, but damn it was a pain to get the bindings switched. What should have taken 15 minutes took over a half hour.

Hey Turbospartan

Check out this quick YouTube video, it'll explain how to change out the Yes I Cant system. Hopefully this helps you out a bit for next time you've got to swap em out.

Bindings: Yes I Cant - YouTube

I wasn't changing out the actual can't system (like the black rubber cushion things) but just getting the whole thing out, so that I could reach the 4x4 plate.

The guy in the video does it very quickly, but I had to use my screw driver to push and pull those things out... definitely did not slide out easily.

And when putting them back in, can't get them to go in straight... always crooked.

Maybe it was because it was so cold out?
