what bindings on a boad
hi, this is to any landboarders or really any who knows, could you tell me what are the best bindings to use when flying i use the standed velcrow
ones at the moment but my feet keep comming out on big air jumps is it just a case of practice or do i need to invest in some proper ones like the
snow board type ones forgive me i dont know what they are called
Happy flying thanks

You should be able to keep your feet in with velcro bindings...
I use MBS f2s which are velcro, i don't like being locked into the board but i never really come out of it in the air anymore. I think you'll probably
get used to keeping your feet in... is it that the board actually falls off your feet or do you bail out?
Bailing out most commonly occurs

As to the make and model of the binding, I'll leave that up to you and what fits best on your board but I think you'll want to be looking at rachet
style bindings so you can crank them down if you want.

and as Domdino says, a lot of times you just need to press your feet out and the board will stay on. I can jump with mine and still kick out if I
have too.

I was just curious if you had a MBS. I had F3s on my last board and they would ratchet themselves down a few clicks when the board landed binding
side down after a fall.
The F2s (velcro) seem good – however, I haven’t got much time on them with all the snow here.
