Do I need new Bindings?
I have an old pair of Zues bindings that my feet slide forward in on hard landings and cramp my toes. I think the boots are 4 years old and thought maybe they are out dated or too big. Or, maybe I need to suck it up, quit whining and continue using what I have. I don't wakeboard as much as I used to so consequently I don't get into the board shops like I used to. Can anyone offer up some advice?

check out snowdealsnow.com they have some pretty sweet company bindings on there for $100 that a lot have wakeworld members have jumped on
|
search up company in the search box and sdn5 is a coupon code that you can use that is basically the same as free shipping
|
How does the weight of the Vandall bindings compare to some of the newer Ronix bindings? Do you feel you can cinch the velcro tight enough?
|
damn, only $65 and free shipping

It sounds like you're in search for a better fit, in which case I would want to try those boots on before you buy. Do you have a local shop where you can sample?
I would suggest the CWB Vapors. They offer 3 velcro straps that will allow you to adjust the fit easily while you ride. |
Should I look at open toed boots or do you think the problem with my current boots is that they are not a propper fit?
|
If your foot slides, theyre not a proper fit

Thanks Dave, that's what I was thinking.

Ya brotha you don't want any play in the boot as far as slipping around. Recipe for a broken ankle and a proper fit would probably give you more control as well. You don't want a squeezed in fit either because pressure points will kill you. Like J-Rod said you should really find a shop and try some on. I understand were all not in a position to drop $300 on a brand new pair of bindings but go find what you like and fits "snug" and see if they will cut you a deal or worst case scenario shop online. I try to support my local businesses when it comes to product but I don't always have the money to pay retail.
