Some words about boots and bindings

Post by Whitey » Sunday 27 April 2003, 17:19

Hello,

I have been snowboarding couple of years with softboots only. I really would like to change to hardboots, but because of freeride hype, it is really difficult (here in Finland almost impossible) to find a specialised and conversant shop. So, my simple question is: what hardboots and bindings are the best on the market at the moment in terms of extremecarving and where the stuff can be found and purchased?

I second that: buy online.

Or do research online, and then order via shop.
That would help make the show owner more aware that there's more to snowboarding than freestyle and softboots.
