i've ridden Technines for the last couple of year, rome 390's, SP's and other before that

however I've just switched to Unions and they are the best binders i've ever ridden

Contacts if you're are rocking the reverse camber or forces if you're a normal camber (which i think the www is... i gave up paying attention to K2 boards about 10 years ago Wink )

it's to do with the shape of the baseplate, it allows more flex near the binding on reverse camber boards... minimal contact basically which according to their tech allows the board to flex more naturally

i liked both, i just found the contacts more fun on a jib board, i'll probably get forces next season for all mountain

Thanks Branny

I may look into getting a pair of contacts for the domes, used my forces in the park, pow, tree runs etc in january and they were brillant. I had a pair of burton co2's before them and to be honest i think they perform just as good with a better price tag.

There very similar to the forces, all mountain binders

Sorry to bring up an old thread but came accross this and had a question.

Is it even worth getting Contacts/pros if I only have a normal camber board?

Or shall I just get forces? They will only be for dome and dry slope and maybe the odd park if i ever get to some snow.

Thanks (:

onelove is the northern dealer so may be able to give you more tech

i find the backplate on the contacts a little softer than the forces so make them a little bit more flexi for dryslope and dome tomfoolery

i've ridden them on my reg camber board and they are still nice...they're just more nice on a reverse camber Wink
