I'm thinking about getting a roam. My problem is that i would like to have a pair of bindings for the board with out switcing them on and off my wakeboard. I was wonder what you guys would recomend for a fairly cheap but comfortable pair of bindings. I'm looking to spend somewhere between 100-150 dollars.

buy a brand new pair of bindings that are a year or two old. i ride the stiffest bindings possible but the roam is the only board i ride so i need the support wake to wake. when i hit rails or just mess around ill leave my bindings untied and completely loose

i find that boards like the Roam or Covenant are more fun on a pair of not-so-stiff bindings, but its preference for sure

JUST TO LET YOU KNOW! GET THE ROAM BINDING SCREWS! THEY MAY COME ATTACHED TO THE ROAM, IF NOT, ASK FOR THEM! They have a different depth than your standard Claw bolts. Just thought i'd let you know. You probably already knew that, but i figured i'd be the public service annnouncement guy haha

^^^^ Or you could just use washers...

hawkeye7708 11-15-2007 9:53 PM

that'd work for the regular claw thumb screws, but aren't the screw-head claws shorter? i dont think it'd work for them...i could be wrong though

The roam binding itself is low cut and allows for a lot of movement. I had a cheap pair Hyperlite Spins that I threw on my roam board, works fine.

no Ben i did not know that, thanks for the warning. GO HAWKS

I use 05 Sphynx's on my roam.

ANOTHER SCREW LENGTH SOLUTION <BR> <BR>use a sander/ grinder to grind the bolts down a bit... i did it once with different company of binding (liquid force on a hype board)

i like stiff bindings on my roam, gives more of a snowboard feel, good for cranking turns and more support on flat landings. <BR> <BR>I've ridden with softer bindings and it gives more a of a skatey feel

spenchey 11-16-2007 5:25 PM

i'm looking at getting the liquid force fusion boots. Does anyone use these? How comfy are they, i normally ride the ultra. I like boots with higher support, but the comfort level is my biggest concern.

westsidarider 11-16-2007 7:51 PM

go to your local shop and try them on. i would never get a board or bindings without tryin them on at least once or riding the board once

spenchey 11-17-2007 10:22 AM

idk have a liquid force dealer near me so it will be ordered off the net.

jdj 11-18-2007 10:19 AM

Anything hyperlite would work well.

Spencer, <BR>Try the Liquid Force Suction or Ultra Sux for the Roam. Find a used pair on ebay or here and you should be good to go. Both these bindings are no gimmick.

LF has some really cheap bindings for 08 that are in tha $100 range on <a href="http://www.wakeside.com" target="_blank">www.wakeside.com</a> im pretty sure...
