K2 Cinch Snowboard Bindings??

Question

Hi, I was looking at the K2 Cinch bindings...And I was wondering If anyone has these and if you cn tell me anything about them? Because I have flow flite 2 right now and they are heavy so I might get either Flow M9s Or K2 Cinchs.So Does anyone know if they are really heavy? Or problems with them I might have? If anyone has them all im really concerned about is weight and ease of use.....So which should I go with K2 Or Flow? Thank you!

Answer 1

I know a couple of people that have the K2 Cinch bindings - one of them for a season and the other for three seasons. The person that has had them for three seasons showed me that they are worn out and wasn't that happy with them and didn't recommend them. The newest models might be better.

Honestly, step-in convenience and light weight bindings are opposites - you really can't have both. If you want convenience, get the lightest Flow bindings. If you want light weight, get the Ride MVMNT bindings.

Get some traditional step in bindings.  I've seen people on the slopes with Cinch and Flow bindings and they seem to wear out quickly and not actually save that much time when you're strapping in.  If they really were so wonderful and revolutionary no one would be riding step-ins anymore.
