Burton Cartel Binding Question - Snowboarding Forum

01-19-2009, 06:43 PM

I have a pair of Cartels that are probably 3 or 4 years old, and was wondering if anybody knows if the straps from the 2009 Cartels would be interchangeable on my old bindings. The ones I have now are ugly as sin (some hippie looking suede shit) and the newer ones look more streamlined and comfortable all around. Thanks.

If you post some pictures of your old bindings someone may be able to help you out.

Alright these are crap photos but I think you can get the point.

Or I could have just done a quick google search for them.

I dont see why it wouldnt? Burton uses more or less the same strap connection method for all their bindings...you would basically just be removing the capstrap side and leaving the other side in...

Yep pretty much, I just wanted to make sure they haven't changed anything in the past 4 years or whatever. I guess I could also just call them and ask.

Those buckles look very similar as this year's Cartels. The straps should be standard with Burton, is my guess.

I popped off my toe strap buckles from my '08 P1's and put them on the '09 Cartels toe strap. Perfect fit. I also switched out the whole ankle strap from the P1's to the Cartels. Again, perfect fit. Your cartels' straps link points look exactly the same as the '09.

Here is a pic of the change. The Cartel strap is loose. Just to let you know also. My Cartel buckles slip a little when I ratchet them tightly. The P1's don't.
