Re: The Step On thread

yeah, I def wonder what the reason was Burton stopped selling the StepOn version of the Kendo boot. I think a unique issue is that I prefer to travel with just one set of bindings, I'll usually travel with my solid and split, and none of these systems (stepon, Supermatic, fase) solve that I persona...

Re: The Step On thread

I like really soft boots. I dont think that's possible with StepOn Depends what you consider soft and also why you like soft boots. The interface itself is fairly stiff, but X bindings + ions is WAY stiffer than swath/photon soft (or even photon) boots + Genesis Step Ons. I prob like my boots 3/10 ...

Re: The Step On thread

A massive fight, by EL standards 😜 Historically, 11 in Burton/Burton could go either way, with pros/cons to each. I'm not hands-on familiar with stepon - is 11 feasible in mediums, and could it potentially help? Yuge! Unfortunately with StepOn, each boot size has its cleat spacing spec’d to specifi...

Re: The Step On thread

Definitely yes. Literally just got done riding them a few hours ago. I’m in perfect fitting Photons in the same size I’ve been riding Burtons for years, it’s not a boot fit thing. There’s play between the boot and binding where the cleat connects to the highback. It does it without even being in th...

I have a buddy who used to say that, but now he says the Gril Master is the better do-everything Burton deck.

Re: The Step On thread

I spent an entire season on them, but thanks. If you spent a season in them and ate shit getting out... Then it's a you problem. You have an incredible intellect. I don't even know what this means... If you rode them for a season and continually ate shit getting out it's user error. I don't think t...

Re: The Step On thread

Rode mine all day today, didn’t care for them. Got in and out of them fine, you can get out easily while riding if you twist your heel up and inward. It’s hard to describe the way they feel. Mechanical but also sloppy? I definitely have heel play in mine. And yes, I’m fully clicked in and riding my...
