I got these last season and they have been great. They are not super technical but bomb proof an comfortable. Very easy to fit and adjust. You can also fit cap straps to them too if you want or adjust the toe strap to be further over your toe. Over all, good value for a Responsive binding and they look good.

Bindings look and feel great! Evo's price was awesome and the bindings will share many happy days on the mountain with me for years to come!

definate improvement from previous bindings, this last season I rode more challenging terrain alot faster with greater confidence. Nice interface with board, solid and responsive feel. I did notice that the heelcup could be adjusted forward and back to better dial in size. I adjusted them forward one notch and found that after riding the screw had backed out and the heel cup became loose. I had to readjust several times and found returning them to the "0" setting took care of the problem. Otherwise the straps, ratchets, plates and rubber parts are all solid. I am pleased with the purchase.

I have size 10,5 (USA) so I could choose between bindingsize M en L. I have chosen L. First time on the mountain: no problem at all. I have the binding on my Nitro Team (2009) board (very good combination). And I could adjust inmiddiately an snowboard smoothly. But after a while the strap at the front came over my toe, so I totaly lost control... I adjusted my binding furtherly and first the problem was solved, but so now and then the binding still moves over my toe. So adjustibility is ok, but could be better. Maybe more grip on the binding?

Next time I take size M :).

I red the other review. The steal heelcup looks and feels solid when you ride. No problem at all.

After using the board 14 full day's, the 'cushion' on the strap was a little damaged. There was a small cut in the seam. So durabillity/quality is ok, but could also be better.

Overall performance:
Good performance for a very good price!

I used this binding with my Nitro Team board.
It is a very strong binding, however, I found the binding is very heavy for doing ground tricks.
My conclusion would be, think twice for this binding if you are a park person.

These were weak. In both senses of the word. I owned them for about 6 weeks before they broke. They broke at the point where the heelcup/chassis connect to the binding and once that broke the rest of the heel exploded. A 150 pound man should not have broken these so easy and I'm very lucky I wasn't seriously hurt. I've dealt with Nitro in the past and they were less than helpful, so I do not have high hopes about returning these.
