Custom Flying V - Snowboarding Forum

Looking to buy a custom V. I am 5ft 10 and weigh 12st(170lb). I have been advised to go for the 158 board. What you guys reckon? What bindings work well with the custom v?

Many thanks.

Heavily depending on what style of riding you're looking to do, (Park V. Powder) a 158 is a pretty hefty board to throw around in the park. However, its just about perfect for all mountain riding.

The Custom V is going to be using burton's EST system, that being said, snag yourself a pair of EST bindings. Preferably the Cartels IMO. Best all around burton binding. If you're looking for something stiffer (powder) go with the Co2's.

My two cents.
