Thanks! That’s really helpful. So I guess the 172 pintonic is almost the elusive 16n TF.]
Well, not really. So the TF has a shitload of EE for its length. So it rides much longer than it is on edge, but still rides like it’s length in pow ( super maneuverable ) the PT 64 and TF 57 have the same EE essentially.

The PT 72 while would share some characteristics of the TF, it wouldn’t really be like the elusive 160+ that so many people desire.

I just buy an Otto 57 and would like to know which binding would fit better on ?

Union Strata or Force ?

Which ever one is stiffer.

Not super familiar with Unions and their line up.

The Force are stiffer, but they have a « normal » disk ,Strata have a mini disk that I like because of the board feeling 🤷🏼‍♂️

Actually considering the new Union Ultras to pair on my Koruas. Any chance anyone been on them yet with your thoughts/input?

For some context, love my CartelX but looking for a smidge more response, but not a fan of new Atlas' feel underfoot, either (feels too dead for my taste). Was hoping the Ultra would be somewhat a middle between the two (Atlas & CartelX)?

Don’t have to tell you, but they’re game changers, especially on wider boards. I wasted way too many years not trying them. Total revelation, which I never saw coming with bindings. Can’t remember exactly, but I think he’s tried NOW?

Haha yeah, you're right Spenser. Still the same GD from previous EZ. But yeah, had the Jones Mercs. They had good response, but preferred the board feel of my B's more. The Skate Tech just wasn't for me, personally.

Hah I know it’s you, just couldn’t quite remember if you’d tried them or not.

Not sure what I’d do if I still preferred union/B and wanted a step up from cartel x
