Bindings & boards

Postby LukaB » Thu Jul 10, 2008 8:30 am

Got the bindings and now looking for a board to put them on (with minimum chance of braking it)
Currently I have Nobile 666 (2007) and I don'tthink that bindings on that board are good idea (I think I will breakit).

So, let me hear you - on which boards did you put bindings and how it worked?

136-140 by 40-43, lots more rocker than standard kiteboards, not too much flex, wide stance, tiny fins. Have at er.

One of the very best out there:

I thought wakestyle boards should be really stiff between the inserts. Have things changed?

it hasn't changed, stiffness in the middle is needed on bindings or else you would get negative rocker. The 08 model was stiffer, but that board looks way too flexy! havent ridden an 09 custom yet.

Forget the recoil 136, go with a rockered board like a 139 Concept.

later
