Want to pull the plug on some new bindings and thinking about the 09' Zeus. Anyone who's rode or owned them, chime in. I'd like to hear about the support, comfort, the latch and how reliable they have been. <BR> <BR>Thanks!

Great boot, very comfy, great heal hold and great ankle support. <BR>Have had zero problems with mine, they have held up great.

Excellent. Thanks Jeff <BR> <BR>More!

They are the best in the line as far as I'm concerned. I have both the Answers and the Zeus. 08 was an issue for me in the Zeus, they put pressure on my achillies(SP??). But for 09 that was fixed and they are snug. The optional tongue stiffeners add more support or remove it if you want a little more flex. Plus with the added optional 4th eyelet you can lace them up high and tight. I ride them with the 3 eyelets and no stiffener. The boot fits the top of the foot well and the foot bed is soft but supportive. <BR>All in all I love the 09 Zeus and will have a tough time changing in 2010 but the Faction and the AA's might just step up to be even a better binding. <BR>I will have a few pair of the 09 Zeus in reserve just in case though.

I rode the 06 zeus until this year I have the L and a size 11 foot! Great boot I love everything about um!

i hated my 09's at first cuz they hurt my achilles like gary said but after i made some minor modifications(i cut those stupid kidney things out) they've been some of my favorite bindings. they're a bit heavy compared to the LF's i used to rock but they're solid...i've takin some bangers where other bindings would've shredded but these have held up quite nice...

I really like my 09's , also liked my 08's. They answers just dont have enough support for me. I wish the zues's were as light as the answers.

Done and Done. <BR> <BR>I'll take the extra weight in order to get the ease of the hinge and the quality here. <BR> <BR>Thanks fellas.

What board are you putting them on? <BR> <BR>The 09 Zeus have a 6inch plate system, so you might need to get the extension adapters, depending on the board you are riding. <BR> <BR>(Message edited by innov8 on September 29, 2009)

Do any of you feel the cable on your achilles? I can feel it all they way around my achilles.
