I can't speak for Flow bindings because I have always been skeptical of them. Maybe some of the other guys will pipe in on them.

As for boots, see if you can try on some Thirty Two Lashed. They have been my personal favourite for years, and the shop will heat mould the liners for you so they fit just right.

Dont get the burton missions there garbage. Rome 390s are solid binders and should be cheap if u can find a pair from last season.

If not, I suggest looking at Drake bindings, they make a really solid binding at a good price point. My only complaint about Drake's, I have found they are a little heavier but you probably wouldn't even notice.

The one place you should probably focus a little more of your budget, is on your boots. Comfortable boots can make all the difference.

How's this price? Burton Mission EST Snowboard Bindings 2011 | evo

Oh, what's wrong with them? I'll look into the 390's too.

Those are EST bindings, which means you need a Burton board with EST to use them.

yeah definitely do not get that.

K2 bindings are cheap and fairly good. I have the Uprise which is cheap. Also heard good things about the formulas.

Save money for the boots.

What's the price range of a good boot?
