I have a 2017 158 Flow Solitude and Fuse Hybrids large that as a setup I'll do for $300. The bindings have one half day on the, basically brand new. The board has maybe 8 days on it all on good snow so it's in really good shape. $250 for just board or $100 just bindings. both sold
I also have a set of 2016 Medium NX2 Hybrids that I never rode. Asking $100 for these.
A 2016 Flow Chill. Used in the park. $100 shipped.
Lastly a 2016 153 Flow Darwin with 10 days on it on either fresh groomers or deep snow. Its in great shape. Asking $300.
I might be interested in the '16-mediums. Three concerns,... I'm looking to go from my 10.5 thirty twos to the 9.5 Burton Rulers next season. I presume the M binding will be a good fit for the 9.5's? But,.. If I just can't make the Rulers work, will the M's be too small for my 10.5's?
2nd- How stiff are they compared to say the reflex Cartels. I'm thinking I want (need?) a stiffer set of binders for that JJ's Explorer I picked up last season.
3rd,.. I know some ppl complain that step-ins are a drag in pow! Since that's exactly what I'm hoping to get the Explorer into this coming season,.. What is your take on that issue?
I only downsized from large to medium when I went from 9s to 8s. Mediums will be to small.
How much stiffer than Cartels are you looking for? The Fuse is still stiffer and more responsive than Cartels. The Cartel frame is softer with ReFlex, the Fuse has the alu wings in the heelcupish area, then there's the front back response with the more supportive hybrid strap and the cable.
Also, the nice thing about the hybrid strap Flows is they are honestly the only binding you can enter or exit from both front and rear. I ride all different kinds of bindings, but typically Flow Hybrids end up on my pow decks.

Well,.. Honestly I don't really know. I've only ever had Cartels. I have a pair of the reflex Cartels I took off my Rome GR and mounted on my 162 Jones Explorer. I was under the impression they are a Med stiff binding and with the Explorer being a fairly stiff board,… I figured a stiffer binding would help with control & response!
Also,.. I've been curious to try step-in bindings for a while now!

That's good. I wasn't aware that you had more than one option for entry with those bindings. I know, (knew,..) absolutely nothing about Flow bindings at the time of my first post. Done a little research since,.. but I guess I missed that little detail.
@ $100 I'm definitely interested. I'd like to see a pic(s) if possible. I'm not overly finicky about what color they are unless they're that funky Orange. Not a big fan of Orange! :dunno: Black, blue, white, any of those would be fine. (…Plus, I think that orange would look like crap on the Explorers awesome looking top sheet graphics!) :blush:
