I have the same rig and love it (I also have the solid). I'd like a little more response out of the bindings, but I moved away from Spark/Hitchhiker because even though I think those have a much better interface, I don't like the feel of the metal railroad-track like baseplate under foot, and that was even with the padding kit added.

Enjoy it!

speaking of magnetraction, I recently saw a rossignol XV from few years ago: the magnetraction was really noticeable, the edges were super wavy.
Definitely not a subtle thing.
I think the newer mervin boards are more subtle, speaking of magnetraction

From what I understand those earlier Rossi XVs had the maggiest of magnetraction on any board ever. Which is terrifying.

in the meantime, my new 22/23 Kazu is arrived

100% agree
I didn't really like also the one of my old mullair. I like clean sidecuts

I am also interested in experiences on the Chargers. But what's going on with the straps in the picture?

We were getting tested

For people who ride ride switch on reverse taper in the southern hemisphere

put a strap the wrong way when adjusting the heelcup.
not as dangerous as puttimg a skateboard truck the wrong way

The chargers feels way way more like a normal binding than the sparks i had 12 years ago. riding with them made me curious about non minidisc unions.
Seriously considering getting a pair of new forces or atlas

I ride very soft boots and like how my stratas and Ultras feels like my heel is locked in when cranked and really loose if i don't.
And the baseplate flex gives me enough freedom of movement no matter how hard i crank the straps.

Years back when i had stiffer boots I didmt like how cemented in it felt with atlas or force.

I did this once when I was about 9 years old. Didn't really know there was a right way. Went skating with some friends and My board just didn't work and I felt like I was insane because I suddenly couldn't seem to skate. Good times.
