i have a flow merc snowboard that i got with 5150 bindings any good?
That’s a decent beginner set-up.
All 5150 bindings are pretty basic. They’re cheap but they’ll get you down the hill alright. If your going to upgrade, I’d upgrade these before your board, though.
The Flow Merc is Flow’s entry level all-mountain board. Pretty durable and a medium-soft flex. Not bad if you’re just starting out, but I wouldn’t ride it more than your first season (at most two seasons), because your skills will quickly progress beyond this board.
Flow is better known for their bindings. People either love them or hate them, though. As long as you get the mid or upper range bindings (M- series or NXT series), they’re great. Burton and K2 also make good bindings if you’re looking to upgrade.
