Loose Bindings?

[Eddie]

I have a pair of extreme bindings on my 90 cm snowjam boards, and everytime I go out, it feel loose. I am not sure if the bindings are loose from the boards, thought I try to tighten them but it does not seem to do any good, for the bindings are not tight to my boot. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

what feels loose the boot to the binding or the binding to the board?

[Eddie]

it feels like the board is loose from the binding, but everytime I try to tighten it, it does not need tightened. I'm thinking that the boot is just loose with the binding.

what binding is it do you know the name of it?

[Eddie]

they are the Snowjam Extreme Bindings. You can see a pic of them here. http://www.skiboardmagazine.com/data/extreme.gif

that just looks like a real bad binding cause there is only one screw holding the heal and toe pice in place. you could allways try to rig some kind of extra screw in there somehow or your best bet if it bugs ya to much just get new bindings

[Eddie]

well, It does not bother me too much. It gets annoying once in a while, but I can stand it. I just want to make sure it is ok for me to ride on these bindings. I mean, nothing will happen, right?

[matthew]

im not going to say nothing is going to happen cause thing do happen you just have to go with it but as long as the play between your boots and bindings isent that much you should be fine and if you start to get alot of play stop and fix it

[Eddie]

ok thanks a lot for the help. If I do decide to get new bindings, which ones would you suggest?

[matthew]

i would say get the mixes(sweet looking binding and works well)
or the Bomber (also a sick binding)

[Eddie]

ok thanks alot.

I have the 'evolution' of your bindings. Feel confortable with the Extreme II version, sturdy and basically unbreakable. They're probably much cheaper than the Phiokkas.
