How sick are those Watson limited red bindings? Wow super light and the air bags look like it would be landing on pillows. $450 little rich for my blood though. Sure would like to try a set.

I love them been using them at the cable everyday, only down fall I'd say is the clear pockets fill with water but it's easy to drain that + I heard they already have that covered next year nike is making the bottoms for them.

They're amazingly comfortable!

I'm about to put a pair of 9-10s up for sale on eBay that have been used for only 10 minutes total.

i tried them on many different times from a few different stores, before deciding on a new boot. the Limited Watson's were decent, but not even close to being as comfortable as the 2009 Ronix Cells/Ones, nor were they as comfy as the Slingshot D2's/D3's.

just my 2 cents.

+1 for the pockets filling with water, makes them twice as heavy and mine dont drain very easily. not sure if it's a warranty issue or not, but hopefully it gets fixed for next season.

I've also had toe stubbage problems with the Vantage Ltd. The toe material is extremely rigid. It may just be that I have an odd shaped foot though. Never had the problem before with my old CTs though, but who knows...

If the pockets fill with water, they will warranty them. I'd wait till the next version comes out as the current ones will just do the same thing. Save LF the time, and you the time, just wait till winter, then send them back, shouldn't be a problem

I love those bindings. I was going to make a thread about how much I loved them when I got them a few weeks ago... But I didn't. I haven't had a problem with them filling with water yet, buttttt, yeah. Knock on wood.

I am, however, already destroying the ankle support on them, haha.

From what I heard it was just a certain # of the first produced ones have a defect and they caught it to late. They will warranty them but like someone said wait for the twenty-ten!!!!

Incredible boots. So low, reacting so quick and direct, that it even might take a little time to get used to it.
