Nice smithbronian institute. Real nice bro 😎

[@joaoteixeiradias3464]

For carving (still progressing) and good damp which of these would you recommend? (Strata, Mercury, Orion). Thanks

[@AngrySnowboarder]

Strata.

[@ElevenEightNate]

Weird hearing that these aren't damp. That seems to be NOW/Jones' thing.

[@MJsteelo]

Great review man; just subscribed!! Q: What are bindings that have a surfy feel but HAS good dampeners?

[@AngrySnowboarder]

Probably want to look at something from Nitro like maybe the Zero.

[@MJsteelo]

@@AngrySnowboarderthank you so much!!

[@Jellyloaf29]

What snowboards would you pair the Orion with?

[@AngrySnowboarder]

That’s a really long list, might want to be more specific.

[@wolfmanjack16]

Aviator 2.0? That’s what the Jones website recommends.

[@AngrySnowboarder]

Wouldn't be my first choice. Typically you try to pair bindings to boards not boards to a set of bindings.

[@craig4483]

Looking for a binding to match with the new nidecker gamma. Would you recommend the Orion, Select pro, or Katana Live carving, switch, jumps mellow park.. Thanks

[@AngrySnowboarder]

Select Pro will have the most response out of those three.

[@sonixbox5218]

would these be a good match for the bataleon blow snowboard?

[@AngrySnowboarder]

Oh yeah.

[@Gradimir.]

Jones aviator 2.0 plus atlas pro or now drive pro

[@AngrySnowboarder]

Drive Pro is a little over kill, probably go with the Atlas Pro.

[@marcusmutzelburg218]

Are these a good match with the Golden Orca and the Mega Merc?

[@AngrySnowboarder]

No I'd bump up to the Mercury from Jones.

[@gdgcrew]

How does this compare in the Now lineup? I expected this to be similar to the Select Pro when reading about it, but it sounds like it’s softer. Is that the case?

[@AngrySnowboarder]

It's softer, the Mercury is closer to the Select Pro with the Jones Line.

[@opfreakx]

is it surfy?

[@AngrySnowboarder]

Nope straight chargey.

[@adam1887]

Are they using the same footbed as the Mercury?

[@AngrySnowboarder]

Don't know, maybe?

[@zackbutler950]

Is skate tech a must have? Or do you have a conditional like/dislike for it?

[@AngrySnowboarder]

It has its place. I love the power drive dynamic it puts down into the edge but you lose lateral play which changes how you get your weight over the nose and tail.

[@zackbutler950]

@@AngrySnowboarder so is it safe to say they’re great for toe and heel edge movements ie mountain/freeride, but they lack some lateral movement that would be ideal for freestyle in the sense of ground tricks etc?

[@AngrySnowboarder]

To an extent. The straps on this help compensate but it's not the same as a flat binding.

[@zackbutler950]

@@AngrySnowboarder thanks for the info!

[@KamilGradys-bd1hs]

are these good match with jones aviator 2.0

[@AngrySnowboarder]

No.

[@KamilGradys-bd1hs]

@@AngrySnowboarder rome cleaver or atlas pro?

[@AngrySnowboarder]

Dealers choice there. Cleaver is more damp than the Atlas Pro.

[@marecki621]

Jones Orion or Bataleon Astro?

[@AngrySnowboarder]

Sure.

[@marecki621]

@@AngrySnowboarderand seriously which bindings would you choose? The board is an Arbor Element, the boots are 32 TM-2, piste riding with carving elements and a bit of fs. I'm considering the Flux XF

[@AngrySnowboarder]

Astro asym wrap.
