warranty: board and boot brand mix
 
All brands' warranties exclude use of other brands of bindings right? I think the only exceptions would be Byerly and Hyperlite... which are both under the HO roof anyway.
and small companies that do not have boots (yet), such as Humanoid, Sine and others.

pretty sure i remember reading something from Slingshot, but couldn't find it on their site, also Hyperlite/Byerly i couldn't find anything on mixed boots on boards, but swear i saw it there before and remember saying to myself, "well that's kool they allow mixing of the two, makes sense, but nice to know"

here are two i did find, a big brand and a small brand

LiquidForce: Liquid Force Warranty DOES NOT COVER: Damage to boards incurred while other manufacturer’s bindings, and/or fins were in use.

Humanoid: Board damage resulting from improper mounting of boots or the use of incorrect
mounting hardware.

i thought i remember seeing it for hyperlite's stuff, too, but not 100% sure.

question though; for those that's ever had a board warranty issue, were you asked by customer service if you had bindings on the board made by another company?

any other thoughts? Joe had a pretty good supplementary question

I just read CWB's policy and it says "damage resulting from improper mounting of bindings, the use of incorrect mounting hardware, or the mounting of non CWB...bindings".

So that leads me to believe that if your bindings are the cause it would void the warranty. But with any other board warranty issue the type of bindings would not affect the warranty. I'm just guessing, does that sound right to anyone else?

Hyperlite requires you to use HL/Byerly bindings only on the Strata track boards.
