Revolution · 11-14-2011, 08:29 PM

Looking for somehing under $200. On a 1 to 10 scale around a 4 (1-flexy 10-responsive) would be nice. My bindings i have now are like a 8 or 9. I have a ride machete 161W.

Union Flites. They're good, light bindings that have a nice, low price point. They're also fairly flexy. Though they're technically a "park" binding, I use them for "all mountain" riding.

The cushion on them is alright. They have a nice footbed that provides the cushion. The base itself has no gasket, just a few rubber dampeners. If you're looking for a binding with an ultra cushy base, then I would look elsewhere.

I have a set of Union Flites on my Arbor board. Overall, I'm pretty happy with them. Good cushioning. I actually had a set of thin rubber footbeds made to go under the bindings, between the bindings and the board to help dampen things out a bit better and they ride nicely.
