Well im gonna buy some new bindings for next year and was looking for some input. I was first told that the Ride Beta would be great for i want to do. I will be riding a ton of park (more jumps than rails). After doing a little research though, I found out that the Beta's are probably a little too stiff for what im looking to do. Looking at rides website it seems that the Delta is one of the more high end park bindings in the line. Could anyone tell me how they handle over medium to large size jumps, if they can be used outside of the park, and if they hold up well. Also, im a size 9 boot but still growing and was wondering if i should get the 7-9 or 9-11. I was leaning more towards the 9-11 so that i dontt grow out of them in a year. Any other suggestions would be nice too. Thanks.

first off i got these bindings for free from a friend. I really like them for some reason. they got nice flex and good response. they work well all over the place. i take em off booters as well as knee deep pow. the straps are comfortable. the overal binding isnt very adjustable but it works. the only problem i have is i have to crank the straps down all the way to feel totally strapped in. sometimes while riding the toe cap slips up.

ive never had the problem of the toe cap slipping, i find whats its tightened right up it doesnt move anywhere, keeps you in nice and tight.

the greatest thing about these bindings is the weight, they are soooooo light, but still an amazing ride.

If you get a pair check where the heel cup attachment wraps upward to see how thin it is.  I've had numerous ones of these come back because they snap right at the crease because its only about 3 to 5mm's thick.

they actually are becomin the bitchiest pair of bindings i own. they seem to not even want to tighten down and stay there. it gets annoying have to readjust the shit while riding jsut to hit a feature. so if ur into big booters. i would stay away from them because they'lll end up falling apart in the air. btw they've almost detatched on the lift before.

Ok well they are on sale on evogear.com for 100 bucks so i think im gonna order em. Im a size 9 boot (will change with my next pair of boots since im still growing) so 7-9 or 9-11? I think the 9-11 would be the best choice.

i got my deltas off of evo gear last season. Iv had to replace 1 ratchet because it wasnt tightening.  Also there are some painful pressure points. 
 
However, they are light bindings.

I haven't had any problems with my Ride deltas.  Nothing has broken.   The toe straps stay secure once you crank the  correct pressure.

I used the Ride Delta dfc bindings, last year, & never had an issue with them, unlike a friend of mine, whose Ride Alpha bindings kept on breaking.
