A:
"The Burton X-Base is brand new for 2013. It is a remake of a binding that Burton made in the 90's. It's super light and strong. A great choice for any boarder!"

Q:
"These bindings don't have the bubble with the scale to gauge where your angles are.. are you just supposed to estimate with the lines on the base pad? because I like my angles exact and completely symmetrical for both sides.. feels like I can't get an accurate angle with these"

"Is this a good binding for park riding?"

Question by Hollywoodls on 10/8/2013 - 6:29 pm
A:
"Yes these would be a good park binding, but they are design for All Mountain. As is with most bindings, you can adjust the forward lean on them to tailor the responsiveness you want from them, and their toe in and toe out, for riding switch in the park. I would recommend starting at 15 degrees ducked toed, then go out or in from there. Some other bindings you may wish to look at are available Malavita 2014 and Malavita 2013 model."
