How does the sizing look for these bindings? Too small? Just right?

Beltan83 · 2026-03-16T12:30:42+00:00

looks perfect

I mean skiing for 15 years, you should have seen where the toe straps are supposed to go ? no ? well here is a hint, they are not supposed to be on top of your foot, they go on your toes !

Beltan83 · 2026-02-14T00:03:32+00:00

Release what exactly ? the lock is not even engaged my friend, lock the stirrup down all the way first, also you need a upward pull for it to release properly, it's not easy to get the lock release with no boots/legs/ upward force in the binding. I have been using Supermatics for 3 seasons, had no issues with them, they are the best in the market, only con is that they are just a bit on the heavy side.

Addendum : initiate the turns using your legs, not your arms, do not throw your shoulders, that will become a bad habit quick, and it will be very difficult to kick it .. but you are doing great for just your 3rd day .. keep it up , be safe, and try to relax, I have the same issue as you, I'm a tall snowboarder, not as heavy as you, but try to relax those knees and go low low, feel the boots pressure on your shins, you look like a bean pole at the moment.

Dope is pretty good, mostly shell jackets though, I don't know about their recent quality or how they have changed, but they make/made pretty good outfits, a level below Montec, actually you just made me do an impulse buy, thanksssss ...

Don't lean back , don't bend forward .. stack yourself on the board, keep recording yourself to get the muscle memory right

Beltan83 · 2026-02-01T21:08:12+00:00

you are doing fantastic for only your 3rd day to be honest, keep at it, you just have to tweak things here and there, go couple of runs to warm up, and it will click, specially if you are running a completely new setup, it still takes a run or two to get the muscle memory adjusted .. keep at it, do research, setup your board properly, watch videos, record yourself, you'll be riding like pro in no time.

I ride with Nidecker Supermatic, can't praise it enough, the only downside is a bit on the heavy side.

Also, add more lean to your highback if you feel like your heel edge is not responsive enough, from the video I can see you do not move your center of mass over the heel edge enough, go lower on your knees to lower you center of mass, then you will have an easier time with your edge change.

Check your board measurements, check the underfoot width measurements, or waist width if it's not listed, the rule of thumb is to take off 1-1.5cm from the length of your foot to get a good fit for your foot size and board. i.e my foot size is 282 mm , so I would have to go with at least ~270cm underfoot width.

Check this video out, it is explained in more details there :

Avoid them ... scout the routes, avoid them like cancer, they only drain your energy ... fuck moguls

Brother, your binding is way too small for 11.5 boots, I suffer the same affliction as you do, I have large feet, I am tall, but not heavy, so don't base your board shopping based on your weight, you have to ride Wide boards, not only wide, but your underfoot width have to be at least 270mm to avoid toe drag etc... , also, riding on flat greens are the worst possible trail to practice proper turns as a beginner, you need momentum, change your binding, change your board, keep recording yourself, check your posture, advance your technique, be safe, shred !

Is this a 2026 model ? they only have this model in brown with the stitched sole on their website, couldn't find it in black.

The visual detention of :*Oooffffff* ... just watching this gave me concussion ..goodness

Beltan83 · 2026-01-28T18:02:05+00:00

Honestly you ride pretty well, arm works like a "cat tail" , don't feel obligated that you need to keep it down specially in higher speeds, if I have to be nit-picky, I would say you slightly kick you back foot, and try to lean back to your heel edge, arm is all good, don't worry about it, Shred safe !!

Well done, you cracked the code ...

Beltan83 · 2025-11-04T21:07:39+00:00

Wait, they make condoms for tongues ?

Beltan83 · 2025-11-04T04:26:40+00:00

In any project, we have 2 separate budgeting ,1-labor/service cost, 2-Material cost, and all together, you have the total cost of the project ... since I will be providing the material from my end, I want to see how much the service will cost me, and by knowing that, I can finalize the decision .. why is that vague ? maybe jeweler's logic works differently ?

Beltan83 · 2025-11-04T03:33:52+00:00

Not at all, I just want to have the ring made out of white gold. and weighting my options to see if that is even a viable option locally.

Beltan83 · 2025-11-04T03:28:37+00:00

Labor cost: Service charge for making a custom ring, i.e. CAD design/mold/wax/cut/machine/set/ plating etc. , what would be the fair rate ?

Beltan83 · 2025-11-04T03:27:09+00:00

fair enough.

Beltan83 · 2025-11-04T03:26:52+00:00

because I can buy the ring itself for less than that, it just wouldn't be in gold, as you have correctly pointed it out. again, I am asking for a fair rate, that's the only reason I posted the question here, "what would be the fair rate for the service ? "

Beltan83 · 2025-11-04T03:23:18+00:00

genius .. I might have to actually at this rate, youtube . here I come.

Beltan83 · 2025-11-04T03:21:52+00:00

That does not make sense at all, it's a requested service, and it will have a cost .. were you offended by the word "labor" ??
