I need new bindings and i dont know which ones i should get. I want them to be stiff and light. Which ones should i get?

From a long time Hyperlite guy...get the cells, they're incredible. I tried them and didn't like it at first, but they grew on me and are sweet. Super stiff, very comfy and no pressure points where they squeeze your feet, ankles, heels or anything funny.

I love the 3ds, i dont really have any to compare them to, but they are super easy in/out, and hold high on your ankle

I tried them next the Ronix ones, and i def liked the 3ds better

I don't like the watsons, or the shanes because of the lines on the liner of the bindings just don't like how it feels on my feet...but I love my cells, I have only had them a week but so far so good

I love the cells they are light & stiff and just like every one has said and no pressure points.

the 3ds are super stiff and have a reall high wrap. i can't stand them but sounds like what you want. the watsons are light and flexible. i think if you are looking at the 3ds' then you shouldn't be looking at the watsons, those bindings aren't comparable at all.

Big vote here for the Watsons. Stiff, very supportive and comfy.

owned & rode all three...the Cells for sure!

I also have owned all three. I rode the 3ds until they broke (3 months). The cells were more comfy, but I broke them in a week. I currently ride the watsons and I like them. In my oppinion, the watsons aren't as stiff as the other two, but they are comfortable.

The Watsons are really comfortable, but super heavy. The Ronix ones also are very comfortable, but has anyone else noticed that they put your heels an inch and half closer to your heel edge than any other binding? It is great for heel side edging, but really screws up anything toe side.

I love the cells, but I'm on my 3rd pair this season. If they didn't have killer customer service I probably wouldn't recemmend them. All my laces broke and I seem to have a bit of heel toe lift.

Ill say this... I have never ridden the watsons so I cannot say anything about those.... The 3DS are off the CHAIN!!!! everyone that has ever used my boots swears by them because they are the sickest thing out there.... the cells are really nice boots to I demoed a pair and thought they were sick. You can scoop 3DS on ebay though for well under $200 and for the money they are as good as it gets. In my opinion THEY ARE AS good as it gets PERIOD. You cant go wrong with either... they are both awesome bindings....

I never try the Watson but it suppose to be a kind of stiffer version of my Shane that I really love... I don't really love the 3DS because it feel loose over the feet even if it's the right size... more over, it cramped my feet!!!! Never ride the cells but I tried them... so much comfortable!!!

3ds or now the Atlas are great boots. I love mine.

Off topic: What size cell boots would be good for a 9 1/2 shoe? 9 or 10?

(bendow) · (bendow) **Join Date: Sep 2005** 10-02-2007, 4:49 AM

10. I wear an 11 shoe and have to wear a 12 in the cells

(protag) · (protag) **Join Date: Aug 2007** 10-02-2007, 9:42 AM

Yeah, grab the 10. I normally have size 10 1/2 and got the Cells in 11. They fit perfectly.

I have the cells, the liner came out of the left boot. The dealer sent them in and Ronix has sent me the 08 cells. i look forward to trying them out this weekend. Other then the liner coming out i love the comfort and hold.

i am trying to wait for all of the '08's to come in locally because i think for me its between the watsons and the new factions.
