What type of Flow bindings are best?
Posted on October 1st, 2009 by admin
I’m looking to buy some Flow bindings, but I’m not sure which ones are best suited for me. I’ve only been snowboarding for two years, but I’m doing all the terrain park features (jumps, rails, all that good stuff), and the slopes that are closest to me are fairly short, so the right Flow bindings could help me get a lot more runs in.
none. if you want a park binding, get ride alphas, ride betas, k2 auto ever, or union force.
if you want the speed of flows, get the k2 auto or the k2 auto ever. traditional straps, but when you strap the ankle in, the toe straps in at the same time. but personally, i ride ride alphas

There is really little difference between the high-end Flow bindings and the lower-end Flow bindings. You may want to start out with a pair of used Flows. They are convenient for getting in and out of the bindings quickly and easily, but I personally don’t like the way the feel. I think standard bindings are more responsive. I bought a pair last year and they just felt sloppy. Maybe I didn’t give them enough of a chance for me to get used to them, but I prefer standard strap-in bindings.
But like I said, if you want to give them a shot, start with the lower end bindings (I would suggest one of their freestyle-oriented models) because there’s very little difference between their Flite model (which you can get for about $100) and their Team model (which costs about $400).
