absolutely not.

one guy on here had the EMP's with releasables, with 90s you are severely limiting yourself in every manner.

Ok im looking at the price range of around 200. Some guy talk to my dad at a Snow shop and told him that the bingings that dont release are dangerous, so my dad wants me to get the release bindings. I like the park and i also like riding so what is the board for me and was the guy in the store right?

honestly, im not sure what to tell you, skiboards with releasables under 200? your asking for a miracle.

you could get those lin flys with the salomon bindings, that set up doesnt allow the skiboard to flex properly because it doesnt use the standard 4x4 insert pattern.

also, the line flys are made fairly narrow. which will reduce your stability, (and actually might increase the chances of you falling and injury)

and by buying line you dont support the skiboard industry.

i'd say, if you really want to get some quality stuff, get the snojam 90s with spruce risers, bit more expensive, but if your seriously getting into skiboarding its the minimum.

if you're going to be skiboarding only a few times per season, and not too advanced, get the lines. but you may want to upgrade in the future.

thats a bit extreme to say there mark, you dont even know how tall he is or how much he weights.

plus many people ride 90s including myself, jason jordahl (who is over 6 feet tall) fookisan also rides 90s.

btw, i combined a bunch of threads from jboner into this one.

and yeah mark some people prefer shorter boards..one person's limitation is another person's advantage.

I guess what I meant was you can ride harder on longer skiboards, thats all.

so why dont u ride the ALP or the 120s or the summit 125 mark? even then why dont u just ride skis if you want length.
