just heard about the new Shane Bonifay bindings. Anyone know anything about them, and when they come out. Mite have to give them a try.

I posted on them like a month ago when I first saw them. I couldn't find the thread but here is what it said. They are basically the same binding as the Transit with a couple of differences. They have an EVA rubber tongue instead of the lycra stuff that is in the transit. They are also way lower cut, and more flexible. Shane wanted a flexy binding that he could have mobility in for pokes and nose presses and stuff. He had said that the transit was too supportive for him. If you like a flexible binding, go for them. If you like support, go with the transit. They are already out in select places. LF did a limited run of like 1000 at first, but they already sold out of those to dealers. They have a bunch more in production now that could be out any time. Hope that helps.

I just touched base with a friend of mine (who shall remain nameless) who works at LF and he was saying that the Sphynx is actually a spin off of the Mynx (hence the name Sphynx) they had something like a 1000 (or around there) pairs of bindings for there reps only and are completely sold out until 05...when they will be part of there regular lineup.Good luck trying to find a pair

Old     (wes_can_riders)      Join Date: Feb 2004       05-05-2004, 7:55 PM Reply   
chris it is the minx but for men
Old     (dakid)      Join Date: Feb 2001       05-05-2004, 8:06 PM Reply   
What makes it different from the Minx then, besides the color and that one is marketed for men, and the other for women?

joe and chris: its the same as the minx, but built for a guy's leg, and there are only 1000 made. 'tis all.

haha! How's it built for a guy's leg? It's smoother so it doesn't pull the hair off?

When I called on May 17, the Liquid Force dealer in Knoxville, TN was totally unaware of these bindings.

Guess he wasn't in the know then stretch!

They are the same bindings as the Minx... I guess Shane likes to wear womens' articles of clothing?
