The right snowboard bindings are often overlooked when buying new kit - once the boots have been fitted and the board has been chosen, the bindings get picked because they're a good colour match for the board; a significant disservice to one of the most vital parts of your set up.
When choosing a binding be sure to take into account what snowboard it will be fitted on, how responsive you would like it to be and what type of riding you'll be doing, because this simple, straightforward bit of plastic is entirely responsible for delivering the contact from you to the board, get it slightly wrong and that link fails.
