Looking at grabbing an upgraded board for this year (my last one is a 10 year old Burton Clash). Planning for a Jones MT and considering a few bindings. Would love your thoughts. Boot are Burton Rulers
.
- Rome Katana (a bit expensive, but sounds like everyones incredibly happy with these)
- Burton Cartel X (apparantly a do-everthing binding, so in case i ever need to switch boards, I may be able to reuse these bindings for something else).
- Union Atlas (seen some folks mention this one, not too sure)
- Jones Mercury / Now (Heard good things about the skatetech and responsiveness here).
I'm leaning towards the Katana or the Cartel x.
Any insights on what would work well for me? I'm a stronger intermediate boarder, all-mountain + side hits / powder, no specific desire to hit the park and the closest I'll go to freestyle may be some switch / butters.
Thank you!
