I already purchased a Burton Fix for this season but I want to get the Sierra FK (besides it's 250 right now). WOuld it be a big difference?

Or should I get the LB Banana or Gnu Pickl? but they are more pricier than the Sierrascope. I wanted to test out the magne-traction because I'm on the Ice Coast.

I found the Burton fix a bit stiff for my liking. I'm thinking of just getting the Sierra for riding out the end of this season and for next season.

I'm 5'8", 155lbs, and wear 7.5 shoes. Should I get the 152 or 156?

I was also thinking of pairing it with Union Force Bindings. Would medium bindings work with size 7.5 boots?

for 250 the sierrascope is a no brainer. buy one before they are out. im 6'0 160 and ride a 156 but i tried out my buddies 151 ns slr and i could tell the difference in size. since youre on the east, grab the 152 since you wont see much powder there. if your burton board is 156 or bigger most def get the sierrascope in 152 and enjoy the playfulness.

Forces are a more "do everything ok/good" binding

390's are about as good of park bindings as you can find, but are a little to soft for big all mountain riding

Really just depends on what you like to ride
