I'll once again probably spend most of my time on RC's and KTP's. The Blunts intrigued me last year, and the XL version has done so again this year, but I can't justify the expenditure. My skiboarding budget will go toward lift tickets and travel. As for bindings, I will of course be on my custom Bomber step-ins.

Last season was my first on skiboards. The awesome spruce 120's brought me down the hills. I will definitely be on those again but picked up a pair of Revolt Trees to try out as well for this coming season. Cant wait! My daughter will be on Head 94's that we picked up from a nice fellow member from here.Just getting started in skiboards

Originally posted by jjue View PostHi Fred.ride.. I actually also had high hopes for the Flow Nx2-At ... I actually converted that binding for skiboarding with a Saavi wing and third strap and SBOL riser ... unfortunately I had a catastrophic failure on a steep slope ... . there are lateral forces on the non buckle side ladder straps when carving aggressively on skibards, that aren't the same as with snowboarding , the stresses I think are aggravated with how there is a full pad on the top of the foot that increases upward and lateral pulling pressures on the non buckle side ladder straps and these forces are distributed better with traditional two strap binding. I had catastrophic pull out of the two bottom non buckle side ladder straps on the downhiill carving skiboard on a steep icy slope. Also if I made the straps tight like I like it my front foot got numb and uncomfortable with riding , never happended with traditional snowboard bindings .. .Although I really like the ease of entry ... I gave up on the Flow binding experiment and went back to traditional two strap snowboard bindings as base bindings...

With my first flow binding who is less stiff than this one, i feel that the boot is well fixed.
When i will receive the binding i will look this in detail. (The old flow binding have a lock mechanism on each strap) This one is a bit different, i will look closer and let you know.

I'm hoping to give the 2012 RC a go with 2015 Spruce Risers. My first Rockered board, this should be interesting. Mostly for Pow and After pow days (crud)
But my go to board for clean groomed days are my Slap dash with Bomber bindings.

Hey everyone,
Im on the market for a new pair of Skiboards and need some help. I have been Skiboarding for 2 years and have been riding summit nomad 99s, and last year tried the Spruce Sherpas which I liked but were a little to big for everyday. My nomads have taken a real beating and i'm in the market for new boards. Im 5'11" and 220 lbs and I cant decide what to go with. I am between the Rvl 8 KTP's and the Revolt. I live in NJ and mostly go to mountain creek and camelback PA, with a trip or two to Vermont. Can you guys help me decide on what I should go with or maybe even make a new suggestion.
Thanks
