They're sick bindings for the price. Good footbed, lots of flexibility in the uppers. Try them on if you get a chance. I'd say they feel a lot like the older Parks bindings in terms of flex. A little soft for me. I prefer the Fuses'.
If you can wait the '07s are killer with the articulated toe, but the '06s are still nice.
How does the support of the Deuce compare to that of the Hinge Tech Torq? I have a pair of the Torqs now, but they are to loos in the forefoot. I do like the stability they offer in the ankle however. The Deuce has more accurate sizing so this is my reason for interest in them.
The Deuce is a fitted boot. Its designed for a specific size, not a range of sizes like the Torq. It has a higher wrap and more support throughout the binding. It rides much like the 04 & 05 Zeus flex-wise. A great boot.
No trendy gadgets, no closed toes. Just sick a** bindings that are way underrated and a good price. Very comfy and nice cushy footbed. good upper support with flex. Once broken in not to bad getting in/out of.
