Custom Snowboard Binding

Flag This Close

Long a favorite of pro riders and hard-charging civilians, the Burton Custom Bindings balance performance and practicality. The baseplate has a forgiving flex that feels surfy and playful over park hits and solid on speed runs. The rotatable highback has a tool-free forward lean and a streamlined design to reduce weight without sacrificing turn initiation or support. Highback padding eliminates calf bite, while EVA padding and adjustable gas pedals on the baseplate absorb shock and improve board feel. The 3D Primostrap and Burton's famous Capstrap lock your heel into the back of the binding for an unreal ride. *Available for US shipment only. - Fall 2008.

Bottom Line: Go with the Burton Custom Bindings for freestyle dominance.

This is to ask another question, What about the straps i bought 14s burton boots and bought the new k2 sonic bindings and one of the straps is having a hard time catching is it going to be like that always with such a big boot?

No, I think you would be ok. I had 13s in Burton boots at one point and also have Burton Custom bindings, and they were fine. So I don't think one more size would do much. The bindings have an adjustable plate by the toe that you can extend out like four notches. It adds a little length to them for ya.

Custom this!

By:

These bindings are so customizable that at first it took a while to get them set up. Now they're the template for my other bindings.
after a 100+ days they're still holding up, the high back broke in a way I cannot understand how (along the side toward the top) Little duct tape and still shredding.
the ONLY negative, boots won't all fit this binding, they have to be wide. my 32 Prions are too narrow but the 32 Lashed fit great. I'm sure any Burton boot will fit fine.

Well these above are obviously Burton Customs which are a decent binding. Not top of the line, but they'll certainly work. As for Burton Mission bindings, they are a nice binding as well. Poncho Villa? not in stock at backcountry.
Your 10.5 boot will be perfect for a medium. If a medium is out of stock, you could also purchase a large and still be ok.

Not Bad

By:
December 15, 2008

Not bad, I had hopes for something a little more durable the straps come loose a bit occasionally and the toe strap does not tighten correctly but overall they get the job done.
p.s. in my experience burton bindings tend to run a little big.

Hey

Sorry if this links a bit dead
I just bought myself a GNU park pickle and was looking around for some half decent bindings to go with it, after spending like $515 on the board, i dont have amazingly alot of cash left over and i heard these bindings where quite good for the price....can anyone tell me if they'd know whether they'd fit my board or if you have any other suggestions for me. Size 10, so probably looking at the medium ?

Thanks

They should be able to fit, Burton uses 3 hole to strap down on a Burton board, but they should come with extra screws that can be screwed into your GNU. So yes, they SHOULD fit.

Solid bindings

If you take some time to adjust them to your boots right after you take them out of the box, they will be your friend for years.
Easy to adjust and durable. No complaints at all. I'd buy them again.

So I was wondering what kind of board these will fit on... Will they work with a Ride or K2 board? Is there some way to look that up, or is everything just compatable with everything else?
Also, I actually got the Custom YO! Bindings, I assumed that they were the same as these but with different coloring. Was I wrong?

These will fit on any board with any mounting system, thats right, Burtons 3D, Burtons ICS, and every other companies 4X4 (I have these and i put em on a ride Concept TMS)...everything is not compatible with everything else but thats only in a few cases.

also the custom Yo's! are the same but with different colors and an upgraded toe strap, i just ordered those too :-)

Really great binding for the money

By:
March 5, 2009

Bought these bindings to learn freeriding and I haven't been disappointed at all. Incredibly adjustable: strap length and highback lean are tool-free, get a screwdriver for highback rotation, strap placement, gaspedal, and stance of course. Straps are extremely comfortable, I use a large binding with 11.5 Burton Motos and the fit is excellent, the cap strap is very secure in comparison with an over-the-toe setup and hasn't given me any pressure points. Like other reviewers I found that the ratchets have a tendency to slip when you get them very tight, but I think there are two ways around this: (1) deal with it because when the ratchet starts slipping, it's probably tight enough and more is going to compress the boot and hurt your foot; (2) but if you're really desperate for more tightness, put your fingers on the body of the ratchet while you tighten with your thumb (pressing in towards your boot) so it cannot slip. Since all of the entry to mid level Burton bindings I've seen use the same ratchets, this can't be a Custom-unique problem. Anyway, I've found them to be all-around excellent bindings to learn on, and definitely suggest putting them on your board if you're in the same situation.

If you are going to be wearing a size 11 boot, especially in a DC which is a bulkier boot, then you will need a size Large in these bindings.

As expected for the price

By:
April 1, 2009

Good price on a good overall binding. Like others have said the ratchet does tend to slip on the straps when you get them tight. As a result, I have had some problems with the left toe strap coming up on the boot during hard riding. I wear a 10 and got a medium...but I'd recommend going with a large.

Sweet for the coin!!!

By:
March 11, 2009

This is my 2nd set of customs of this year. I bought the clear/frosted white ones but wanted the black ones. as soon as I saw them hit Brociety they were mine. I now have a spare pair! They are a decently wide binding for the size. meaning they will fit your moon boots fine! The cap straps are super nice and I haven't had any problems like I've read about the ratchets. They are Burton so if someone had ratchet problems Burton would replace them for free. If you are looking for a great really comfortable freestyle/all mtn binding these are a great choice!

You can definitely use them as a women's binding. Since they have a medium flex, there's nothing that really denotes them as a men's only binding. Get a small for the size 7; snug fit.

You should be ok with a medium but this depends on your boot. What boots do you ride currently? Some boots have a much larger profile than others. For example, the ION is a very low profile boot and would fit just fine. Hope this helps!

By:

Easy setup, nothing to complain about. Very adjustable, but most bindings are. They do have a fair amount of flex to them, not rock-solid. Also (on my board at least), they tend to be a bit loose (maybe 1/16th of an inch play all the time, left to right), even though I've tightened them as much as I can without stripping anything. Doesn't seem to affect my riding though.

I just got a set of these bindings and they are great. The only question is how do you adjust the ankle strap posission.

By:

?...well theres two adjustmets...one is changing the position of the strap up and down, to do that you simply unscrew the straps where they are connected to the binding and move them to one of the other 3 holes, and screw em back in...the other adjustmet is the position of the ankle strap left to right, just find a screw on the strap, opposite end of the ratchet, unscrew it...slide the ankle strap to the desired position and then screw the screw back in if there is a hole, if there isnt a hole then you went to far left or right...admitedley i found it hard to describe these processes in words but they are very very simple concepts and are almost the same for every binding out there, so it would be a good idea to get these simple maintnence/tuning methods down pat...(adjustment 1) you want your ankle strap angle to cut the angle that your boots make in half, or at least as close as possible for maximum energy transfer...(adjustmet 2) you want your ankle strap to centered on your boot when tightened down all the way, this can take a few tries to get right but it will elminate pressure pointspardon my rambling but i hope that helps

Good Bindings but Straps a bit weird

By:
March 2, 2009

They work pretty well and look great, but the only problem I have is with the straps. First of all, they came preset for doll-feet, which is no big deal as they were easily adjustable. But, the straps can't be tightened all the way, and sometimes there is slipping of the strap/buckle so that it gets loose.
