hey guys, i want to buy new boards probly this summer,im 5' 2 102 lbs, and i love the bwp graphics!!:p im also looking at the tanshos. im aware that with releasable bindings i can use the bwps, but i also want to be able to go to the park. I also found out that if you turn up the DIN then the bindings wont release. But then they become non releasable wich is a bit of a waste of cash so wadda you think

they dont become non releasable, just more resistant to releasing. at least they will still pop off before your foot does. :)

hey bro i say get the bwp's then if you cant get past the graphics i have a pair of 90's and although the bwp's are 98's they are only slightly longer then the 90's because the tips and tails are allot taller adding the extra what appears to be 6 cm.. again they only appear to be like 2cm longer then my line 5-0's idk. i have rode mine twice so far and love them they easily enable me to land massive airs grinding was fun at first cuase the edges where to sharp right under my binding i kept getting hung up on metel rails, pulled out the tunning kit and detuned them right under the bindings and walla no other problems. The rider height is a recommendation anyway and is strickly so you dont try to sue the company if something bad happens due to improper board lenghth but you'll see all that when you actually order...

ehh thats an iffy one i personally wouldnt get the releasable unless i was to lazy to bend over and flip the little flap on my binding which wont be till im like 60 somthing, but i will still be skiboarding.... by me saying there only 2cm longer i was implying you should be good with non releasables just remeber to keep those tips from getting sucked under chairlifts and you should be alright I have seen some twin tippers take some nasty falls and there bindings not release so in my oppinion there like airbags in cars sometimes they work sometimes they dont and sometimes they come off at the wrong time all together...

edit-lol-remeber=remember....ilove my spelling when im trying to type fast.
