This review does not directly cover the 25/26 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
A binding that strikes a good balance: very light without feeling rattly. The ankle strap is excellent, but the toe strap is its weak point — it doesn't fit boots well and either won't tighten past a point or ratchets back out.
The reviewer's point is that when the toe isn't held properly you end up over-tightening the ankle strap and hurting your foot. There's no stance width adjustment, so the board's insert positions become your stance (unlimited on Channel boards).
