Confused about flex - Snowboarding Forum

vandal · 10-20-2008, 11:09 PM

I want a binding to fit my schedule of: 40% jumps, jibs...and 60% groom and powder.

I hear delta's are super flexed, but Spi's are rock hard (even though i havent seen a flex rating anywhere for them

)
but then i looked at republic and faction bindings, both were 7 and 6 on the flex scale....which to me seems like a perfect compromise, yet both are freestyle bindings

Rome is sold out everywhere....im open to suggestions

Am i wrong?

Well to throw in some more of last years for you to look for.

K2 Formulas, Union Forces, Salomon SPx 45's.

And for this years, the Union Cadet DLX would be good for you, and I think they're only $160 for the '09.
