Oy, 25 bucks less for the Custom (if you count shipping) than I paid for it... and the one I got was a Second. No big deal really, but ah well.

Just a quick question since I am a noob, can I mount my salomon bindings to the Burton Custom? The binding mount has six elongated holes for mounting, 2x3 pattern, like this:
Front

You would need a different baseplate for your bindings. I would have to imagine that Saloman offers on that fits burton boards.

I'll shoot them an email and find out. Too late for me on the WM deal though, they sold out of my size. Those things are selling like hot cakes.

Yeah, getting in touch with Salomon might be a bit more difficult than I had first imagined. I think these are universal binding mounts though. I'll take them with me when I go to the ski shop in the offseason and see if they match up.

Any ways, Burton X8 up for grabs at $225 right now. Limited quantities.

that has the ICS binding mount so you would have to buy new bindings... never mind just noticed they give some sort of disk to fix that.

Watching the video on Burton's site right now about the ICS system. Pretty cool, but you only have two mount points, which unless it's super reinforced leads me to believe it's easier to break. Great idea though.

According to the video Burton makes a disk for their bindings that has three holes, two for mounting it to the ICS channel and the middle to look through at where it is in the channel. Still, it's two points of pressure versus 3 like regular Burton bindings or 4 on standard bindings.

Damn, anyone looking for a Burton EST ICS setup on closeout just had an orgasim. An $850 MSRP for board and binding going for $355 plus shipping. Not a bad deal at all.
