and would they be a good mountain riding board? like on a groomed surface?

scare/stairmaster is a freestyle deck on the stiffer end, so yes, it's great all-mountain

for bindings - 08/09 k2 formula, raiden zero (not the 06/07), union force, 07/08 rome 390, 08/09 ride beta

Without a doubt u should go with the Scaremaster. As for bindings, I ride technines and absolutely love em and have heard good things about the Mass Appeals. As for boots, I totally agree with burtonswluver, DC boots are probably the best.

Boots are definitely the one thing that is more personal needs than bindings/board. Just because people "hate" on burton dont not buy them if you can find a nice quality pair that fit you perfectly.

I guess what im trying to say is brands for boots only really matter at the lower end for durability..once you reach a price point(probably $200+) then it really comes down to which one is the most comfortable for you, and in relation maybe what lacing system it uses.
