Are the Rome Targa's too much for a beginner - Snowboarding Forum

02-04-2008, 12:34 AM

Hey guys...I'm hoping you can help me out. I've been snowboarding for about 5 years, but I haven't gone enough to reach the intermediate level. So I'm probably what you would call a experienced beginner.

I saw a good decent deal on Rome Targas, are these bindings to much for a beginner to use. Should I go with a different binding such as the Rome Arsenals or 390's?

Thanks for the help

Nope, they sure aren't. Get them, you will be happy you did. If you buy a shitty pair of bindings you will regret it. Arsenal's and 390's would be perfectly fine as well but if you can get a slammin deal on Targas I'd get them.

Targa bindings are awesome. I personally do not believe they would be too much for a beginner (w/ little experience). They are extremely adjustable. If they're too stiff you can adjust the flex somewhat. I don't think I would recommend them for someone who has never been boarding before. However if you have some runs under your belt and can at least link turns...go for it. You will not need to buy any other bindings after that!
