Burton CO2 EST Snowboard Binding - 2008 BCS

These bindings seem sweet so far, I've ridden the Burton C60's the last couple of years and those are great as well. One thing to note on the EST system which I wasn't aware of when I bought them... the maximum stance angle you can go on the front binding is 25 degrees and the maximum rear stance angle is 10 degrees. I normally ride 39 degree forward stance in the front and 30 degrees forward in the back - so this was somewhat of a disappointment for riding the steep and deep terrain ( I like to be facing downhill as much as possible thus the 39 & 30 stance angles ) Not something that's advertised but if your used to the old style 4 bolt or 3 bolt baseplate bindings then you should know that the EST system maxes out at 25 forward in the front and 10 forward in the back.. Hope that helps someone.

I don't like it when a company tries the "new and
improved" when thay were better off with the "tried
and true" version, construction was over complicated
and an unnecessary expence I'm sure , not to
mention the limited "limitless" stance options and the
cheezy paint job on them .
I returned the EST's for the 3D version and found
them to be overengineared and under finished as
well but at least I had my stance options

These bindings look awesome and fit the same. They are the perfect match for my setup (ion boots on a 166 malolo). There is one major problem though. every time I ride this board the bindings move in the slot system Burton used. They should have learned when Rev had the same problem in 1993. Even their little brother Forum has experience with this problem. I have ridden both of these other systems and neither one had as big a problem with moving as the two bolt burton pattern.
DO NOT BUY THIS system if you are concerned about your bindings moving when you ride!!

I had a pair of P1's that I really liked for a few years but last year somehow the base-plate snapped on them. I called Burton and they said they could replace them or send me a pair of Co2 in yellow. I got my new Co2 about a week later and rode em for a few months. They really are sweet! The highbacks are comfy, the toecaps have the rubber lip on bottom so they don't flip up as much and they look sweet! Really these are some of the best bindings out there. Burton stays ahead of the pack on bindings. Pick em up, and let it rip. I think having EST would sweet too, I just don't have an EST board!
Thanks B-ton!
