Watson v. Shane LTD Bindings

(andrew_moreton)

About to pick a new set of LF bindings and am going to get either the Watson CT LTDs or the Shane CT LTDs. Has anyone ridden these and how much stiffer are the Watsons than the Shanes?

Thanks!

The Watsons are considerably stiffer than the Shane.

I was riding the 2.0 at TXMC yesterday and Clay had some of the LTD Watsons. They looked sick!

Just tried on the Watsons today, and fell instantly in love. Now just to get the money to buy some...

There's some '08 Shanes on boardersbestbuy.com right now for $150. Take a look at that.

Yeah, only looking at the 09s, so I just wanted to see if the Shanes were too soft.

Andrew... I have worn both 09 LTDs.

The watsons are stiffer and tighter around the top of your foot, Ive heard Watson does this on purpose.
Shanes have a tish more flex and are definately a lil looser on top of the foot. I think the Shane has stiffened up a little bit for 09. I could be wrong.

Bottom line there both sick and you wont be dissapointed either way :-)
