EST bindings cushion landings better? - Snowboarding Forum

jegnorge · 12-23-2010, 09:47 PM

so i decided to test out my ICS/EST board against my 3D board and after doing a few icy landings, it feels like the landings are "softer" with EST. anyone else had the same experience?

Makes sense. Instead of plastic/metal underfoot, it's all cushioning.

It all depends on which EST bindings and which footbeds you have installed.

Also depends on what board your riding.
