Hey everyone!
I've been renting snowblades, skiboards ect for a little over 3 years now. Its something i turned two after seeing it used while i was giving a poor attempt at skiing. I instantly fell in love with them. Well this year for my birthday I had the inclination to get myself my own pair. I knew my family was headed to hills soon, so I didn't do a ton of research and ultimately, i feel like I shot myself in the foot when I ended up getting these
I'm so incredibly disappointed. I realize like with everything, you get what you pay for, but I assumed that these had some inkling of quality..and I was mistaken. I hate the bindings, I hate the way they feel as I'm turning, i could go on forever...I dislike them to the point of going back to renting every time we go out. I think new bindings would make them bearable, but after poking around the threads related to bindings, I'm worried that getting new release bindings for them is a fantasy. Is it possible to find some that would work or would i be better selling these for a loss and working my way to a higher quality product? What are some quality board+binding options for beginners in say a 200-300 dollar budget?
