IMO go with the top of the line Burtons or don't go at all. Have heard of a lot of Customs breaking, Missions are okay, but my P1's seem bulletproof

Just beware of the plastic heel cups breaking... personally I would get Rome 390's or something from Ride or Nitro or Technine w/ aluminum heel cups....

I got a pair last year, rode the hell out of them and am still riding them and love them. I havent had any problems and as far as the heel cup being plastic if it breaks burton warranties base plates forever. My brother rides the missions and hasent had any issues. Both are great bindings

Go with Cartels, i have the P1's as well and dont like them. Burton warranty is the best in the biz.

what do you like about the Cartels over the P1's?

Yeah they will warranty them, but what about the days between breakage & replacement? You are down a binding...

With the P1's there is jsut too much going on, first day out my carbon fiber back snapped- replaced but still annoying. The Cartels are simple like the customs but in my opinion just a little better made and steezier.

Cartel's are definitely sweet, if you don't mind a higher back.

I love my Cartels as well.

do all you cartel riders do a lot of park riding?

I dont ride any park and been riding the Cartels for 4 or 5 years. I really like the high back and the price.

I am more of a back country boarder, always searching for some freshies in the trees. I will hit the park here and there on a bluebird day.

I have a pair of 09 Burton Custom YO! in 24K Gold which is the only reason I bought them.. because they look cool. Functionality wise... they suck. Selling for cheap if anyone wants them.

If you are buying bindings, buy UNION or don't buy at all. Great, comfortable, affordable bindings with a lifetime guarantee.
