Review Detail
Used them for 2 weeks so far, general thoughts are that they were pretty good, mostly convenient, but perhaps a tiny bit too soft for my liking, but I am quite big and rode them hard. Can only really compare them to Cinch's from 2 years ago, which they are definitely lighter than, but also softer than.

Had a little bit of trouble with the straps holding their position from time to time, and full heel strap came off once. Not good, that bit! No issue with the cable staying in place, although the catch at the back isn't always the easiest to grab with gloves on.

Also had chance to try new Flow NXTs and was surprised how good they felt.

Summary, they are pretty good, but I have to say, for £180 I expected a bit more. Give them a try but don't rule out Cinch CTX or FLOW NXT
Strengths
Convenient, Light, look good
Weaknesses
Bit soft, perhaps more of a park binding? Heel strap came loose of its own accord. Bit pricey
Similar Bindings Used
K2 Cinch, Flow NXT
