This is so much more than an entry-level binding. Yes it's forgiving but also responsive edge to edge. It has that perfect mid flex, not too stiff and not too soft. I pair mine with my 2015 Riders Choice C2 and it works perfectly. It is comfortable and forgiving for park and freestyle, but I can also rail a carve, no problem. The straps are pretty basic but comfortable and easy to adjust. The ankle strap has no padding and at first glance looks a bit unforgiving, but it has a 3D type design that doesn't pressure the foot at all whilst remaining responsive. I consider myself an experienced rider, and I can recommend these to all levels of rider including more advanced riders who are maybe on a bit of a budget. If you like a mid flexing binding that can handle the whole mountain and want great value these are a no brainer.

I love the playfulness and the comfortability of this binding, my only issue with this binding is that the toe straps do not stay put, feels like the plastic groove for keeping them in place is not long enough so my toe strap comes undone, could be just a defect of mine only, something to note

Got a killer deal on a new set of these with a board purchase. The rental boots were quite wide in the heel for these bindings and required a bit of finagling to get a good fit. If you have narrow, low profile boots, these seem to be a great entry level option.
