Quick Q: TT30 or 390 boss - Snowboarding Forum

Raysb · 03-16-2012, 12:20 AM

Hey guys. Looking for a pair of bindings for my new setup (GNU 151.5 RIders CHoice + Burton Imperial sz 8 boots) and narrowed it down to these two due to availability: Flux TT30 vs Rome 390 boss. Intermediate all mountain/freestyle boarder, weigh 140lb, getting into medium to larger kickers. I was concerned about the low shock absorbing/dampening of the TT30 but like the red colour. Any opinions before I take the plunge?

I'm partial to Flux. I love their shit. So comfy. I've never ridden the rider's choice, but the lack of dampening isn't an issue on my NS Evo - the board has plenty of dampening. Both have great warranty departments, so no issue there either way.

I think you'll likely be happy either way you go. Hard to go wrong with either, to be honest.

I own and love both. You really can't go wrong either way.

do you want canting? that should make your decisiion easy...romes have canting, the tt30s do not

I'm sure you'll be happy with either. Both are well-made bindings.

Never tried the bosses, but I had a pair of the regular 390's and currently own a pair of TT30's. All I have to say is Flux makes the most damn comfortable bindings I've ever ridden!!!
