The Mercury bindings from Jones snowboards are a stiff iteration that is a middle ground product for advanced riders. It’s stiff but has so much shock absorption that only snowboarders who are relaxed will be able to run with it without feeling sleepy. But for those who do, it’s somewhere between a Mustang and a Coupe de Ville.
With snowboard boots that have a harder sole, riding with these will give a Cadillac Seville experience. That will be super nice on powder and long, luscious carving runs.
At the same time the slight twistiness in the heelback will cater to more flexible boards and ultimately allow for a wider spectrum of terrain. The straps can switch up to change support profiles to customize the flex you need for different styles too.
Things we like:
-
Incredible shock absorption -
Pretty simple run & gun riding experience
-
Good for different terrain
-
Hits a nice point between stiff without hamstringing flex
Things we don't like:
-
Toes strap is harder plastic and can come loose -
Softer soled boots will feel the pressure from the forward foot bed
- Riding Style: Freeride or all mountain
- Ability Level: Advanced-Expert
- Flex: Stiff
- Binding Type: strap
- Compatible Mounting Pattern: 2x4, 4x4, Channel
- Warranty: Limited Lifetime/1 year complete parts
