‘sup collaboration!
Could you by any chance shoot some pics of your ride and upload them to imageshack and post it here? I’d really like to know how it looks like in reality!

You might have a look at the UNION Force, really solid bindings for a reasonable price.
Other than that, I’m sure Rome, Ride, Drake, Salomon and some other brands are definitely making some nice bindings as well so just check out which bindings look good to you and check the flex on it. As a freestyle binding it should not be too stiff but I wouldn’t go with a totally noodle-ish bindings as they just hardly give you any response at all.. It’s all about personal preference, though!
Or course you’re welcome to come back with some more detailed/specific questions about bindings any anything else then!

Cheers, Tobi

You could check out the Forum Shaka binding. I’d be inclined to go for something simple, solid and comfortable… Union Force bindings fit into this category as do the Salomon Arcade (nice in Red!).

ya sure i will try to take some photos.. photos dont do justice i reckon

back to bindings.. how about union contact? would it be too soft??

should i be looking something more toward mid flex i.e all mountain flex??

it will mostly be used for jibbing and jibbing and more jibbing… and small kickers

Yeah the Union Contact is ideal for reverse camber boards, It’ll keep the non-flexing deadspots under the bindings to a minimum. I think the flex and simpleness of the Contact is going to be ideal for jibbing.

Good choice
