Yes, you should put this binding on your Wish List! Why? It cants, tilts, and has built-in lift.The tilt/canting means you can customise the bindings To Fit YOU,not that you Adapt to the Binding. Big difference,Enormous even. It's super-solid, almost bullet-proof. Snow dosen't jam in it, as it has spacing under your feet. You can run high angles, instead of being stuck riding Sideways on your board, and At Speed, that's a huge advantage(as is seeing where you're going!). In my 27 years of riding snowboard,only the old Burton 3-strap from '89 comes close to being the kind of breakthrough that this binding is.It'll change how you deal with snow. The 'downside' is in weight (though it ain't bad) and in vibration transfer(something Pow-Hounds need Not worry about),and that if your fingers are wet,they might stick to the shiny metal parts in severe cold... Otherwise, this binding Is Better than anything else out there, if you're a FreeRider at heart.
