shakka:I found a rossignol board for really cheap and i was thinking about getting it to last a season before i spend some money on a nice board, but the owner of a local snowboard shop was telling me that burton had a custom binding base plate and wouldn't work on other boards. He said I would have to ask for a standard one or buy it from the site, but i don't see these available. I was looking to put the Burton Customs on last years model of the rossignol RPM. Will the customs fit on this board or do i need a special base plate or what?
That owner of the local snowboard shop is full of crap!!!! Burton Bindings work on any board. They all come with a four hole disc so you can mount it to any board no matter what brand it is.
What is the name of that shop? Not all shop people know what they are talking about. holes in it. I knew beforehand that you couldn't put EST bindings on a regular board. I know more about the boards than that guy.
So now evertime I go into a shop I don't ask questions becOne shop guy, at my local shop, told me that you could put EST Bindings on a regular board with 3 or four ause they are all full of crap.
k this is kinda the exact opposite but if i buy an X8 will me rides work on it, ya i know its got the ics, so am i fucked by the long *** of burton into buying there bindings?
it has been mentioned/rumored that ride and other companies will have ics compatible discs for this season, but right now, no they won't work
yes you are asking for trouble. 4 hole discs are meant to be used with 4 bolts.
ride should be able to provide you with discs that work
It's being discussed, because of some specific team riders.
No decision from Corporate yet.
