I won't go into boards, but out of those bindings I'd take the Transits. They're pretty freakin' sweet!

I weigh about the same as you but I dont know what it is but I seem to like the smaller boards better then the bigger ones. I like the Hyperlight Premier 136 for a board and as for the bindings the Temets look pretty promising. I haven't yet had the opportonity to ride them yet.

Second to the Blindside Blade. Check out the Stomp bindings. Flexible without heel lift.

definatley go for the PArks board i love mine. FOr bindings i would go with the Byerly bindings with the Boa system there the best and keep your hell dont. They are very easy to get in and out of without soap or lube.

It's pretty tough to say what's going to work the best for you, because everyone has different preferences. I can't comment on the Parks, because I haven't ridden one, but the Subjekt develops excellent vertical pop, and is really aggressive on edge with a loose feel on center. You should look into the O'Brien Demented 136, too. It will be as aggressive as the Subjekt, but have more tracking on center. You definitely wouldn't go wrong choosing the Transits. They're very comfortable, have easy entry and exit, and you can tighten them down to hold you in really well.

You might want to take your skill level into consideration. If you are a fairly new rider, I would stay away from boards like the Parks. I've talked to more people that hate that board than any other board.

Nice riding boards: CWB Prodigy or Absolute. Hyperlite Era, Belmont, or Temet.

Bindings: So far my favorites are the CWB Zeus.

The Subjekt is a good board, but in my opinion, you should be at least an intermediate rider to enjoy that board. I have ridden blindside before and liked the board.

I demo'd the transits last week and they are awesome bindings.
