for those boarders with boots (men) size 8, what size BURTON bindings you wear??? ... I know burton's "small" goes from 3-8 and "medium" from 8-10... which sizes do you have and how do they fit you? .... i already own a pair of FLOW's and a pair of Ride's bindings in mediums. But now im thinking to pick up a pair of burton's in size small since they seem much cheaper than mediums... do you think its any good idea??? p.s. my feet sizes wont get any larger.. :)

Ive never heard of bindings coming in small medium and large sizes but it might be something new Burton are doing im not sure?. But i think the small bindings that you are talking about might be womens bindings as you wont get too many men with size 3-6 feet so i would go with the medium ones. But ask the staff at your local shop to be sure as they should know what they are talking about.

First of all, if someone is selling the same model binding at different prices for different sizes, you are getting ripped off. All burton bindings in the model, regardless of size, is the same price!
As far as size, you will want to use a Medium, especially if you think your foot might grow a little. Mens small usually runs up to about a size 8, but that is going to be pushing it. You'd be better off in a Medium.
Once again, I advise you, if you are getting brand new Burton bindings, the sizes should all be the same price. If you go to www.burton.com it will tell you all the prices that the equipment should be sold at in various stores around the United States.

Stick with the medium. If you are trying to save money don't bother with the small. There is a reason the small is less money. They are designed for smaller riders. The high back is much softer and not as responsive thus a poor performing and sloppy ride. At a size 8 there is no way you would into a small ether way. the next thing I'd look at is what kind of boot you are in. That has a lot to do with what you want out of a binding. But for now stick with the med and stop trying to be a cheap skate.

For a good binding i would look at the k2 formula. It is an awesome freestyle binding that is super comfortable and durable. Or look into Union Bindings. If you buy Ride Bindings i would suggest buying the higher end ones, because more than a couple of my friends have had problems with their ride bindings. Another quick note, stay away from cheap Technine Bindings, they look flashy and cool but you'll find they aren't so cool when you get to the top of the mountain and realize that you lost a strap! And as far as sizing goes, You could probably get away with a Medium Binding if you are done growing, but if your still growing i would definitely get Large Bindings. Good luck

i got the medium and they fit me ALOT better plus if u move up to a 9 size shoe then u can ajust the bindings but anyway, its well worth paying the extra money for the medium
