2009 CWB Zeus bindings deal!

[aaroncat]

I ordered a pair of these last night. Deal is $105, MSRP is $460, the closest I've seen to that price is $269 and the average seems to be low-to-mid 300's.

Sweet deal. I also score big on Boardersmall on bindings but it was for my girlfriend. Got her a pair of Liquid Force Wing bindings (women's) for $90 (retail $379) and best I found even on ebay was $199. Now I think I'll match her up with a 134cm Liquid Force Trip for $169 I found as well. She's never had her own board and has only wakeboarded a couple times before we met. I think she'll be happy.

That's a great deal on some pretty sweet boots!

What board they gonna ride on?

[aaroncat]

Nothing special. A 139 OBrien Natural. I actually got it off craigslist for $100 still wrapped in plastic so I couldnt pass up that deal.

Thanks for the link. After seeing how easy it was for my cousin to get into his CWB hinge bindings, I've been looking for a great deal on some. This will fit the bill. Hopefully now I won't pull the occassional shoulder/back muscle trying to force my way into my bindings.

the natural is more than "nothing special". i've ridden a natural for the past 3 years - best board i've ridden by far. learned backrolls & tantrums on that board. rides super fast, great tracking, and huge pop. this year, i'm going to give my new LF watson a shot, but i won't hesitate to go back to the natural if i don't like the watson.

Thanks for the heads up on the bindings. picked up a pair and a new board to go with, CWB Absolute. New Board, New bindings and a new boat. Things are looking up for the summer!!!

Sweet! I still havent taken it out of the plastic myself. So I guess for $100 it was a steal! Good to know that it will treat me well.

I got my wife the same bindings from there and they are awesome, best $99 bindings I've ever seen. I got her a Jstar Muse from BBB for $50 to go with it. I can't believe how nice the Jstar is, a lot nicer, and lighter then her older Hyperlite Eden.

Yep, they have some good deals. They have a daily deal site, boardersbestbuy.com, I think that you can subscribe to and they will email you the daily deal. Just check the shipping, it looks like it can be kind of steep on some items.

Wow. Awesome heads up. Just picked myself up a pair with free 2 day shipping.

Great deal!

Darn....seems like I waited too long, price is $123.75 now, still good but not as good. I was trying to research the bindings. I'm still using my starter bindings, blindside stomps.

[aaroncat]

I just received the bindings today. They feel great, loads of support around the ankle and up the shin. I removed the (removable) plastic insert to make it more comfortable on the top of the foot but will experiment with it a bit when I get out on the water.

If you have a board with an 8" insert spread you will need the CWB extendo clamps: http://www.evogear.com/cwb-extendo-clamps-for-6-plate-bindings-2-2008.aspx (Sorry I bought the last 2 from there)

Moments ago the 08 CWB Zeus went up on http://www.boardersbestbuy.com/ for $75 + $18 shipping anywhere in USA. MSRP on these are $445!!! Only catch with this deal is that sizes start at 11 and go up.

^^ I saw that too ^^
Too big for my little feet :(

Back down to 105!

[brain_rinse]

Only size 12 and up now, bummer.

I was reading the features, and it mentions a removable toe stiffener. Anyone know if this is just the removable plastic piece that velcros over the top of your foot? Or is there a seperate piece for the toes that is removable.

The binding feels great, but it does feel like it presses down on my toes pretty hard. I'm sure it'll loosen up with time, but just making sure I'm not missing something.

[aaroncat]

Its just the white plastic piece that velcros to the upper part of the boot and is super hard to get out! I thought it was stiff also but once I got that out it felt very comfortable.
