What do you think of Burton Stilettos?
I need bindings. I have been riding for 4 years and I usually go about 5 times a year. I’m a freerider. I have the Rome Blue board. Would you recommend the Burton Stilettos?
Thank you Agent Bristow! I have a few questions. 
So for the Burton Sapphires, I normally wear a size 8 in shoes and my last snowboarding boots were Morrow size 9 boots. What size sapphires would fit me? My foot is about 10.5 inches long from heel to biggest toe. And for that size, would I need size M or L Burton Stilettos? Thanks so much!
I have them. They are good for 5 times per year, but the buckle on the capstrap seems a little cheap. I like the capstrap though. The escapades are better, but the stilettos are good if you don’t go that much. they are a lot cheaper. Since you don;t snowboard often, i would recommend them. If you plan to snowboard more, get the escapades. I ski 2 to 3 times per week, and usually snowboard on Friday nights after skiing when they have night skiing, so I don’t snowboard very often, and the stilettos are good for me.
Because of the capstrap, they are probably one of the best bindings in their price/level range. They are onsale at dogfunk.com for $97.96 with free shipping.

dogfunk usually doesn’t have the best prices, but they have the best return policy. If you don’t like it, you can return for a full refund it at anytime, even if it is years later or if you break them, if you you just don’t like them.
If you are concerned about size, they say that medium fits 5-8 and large fits 8+. My old Salomon Ivy Autofit size 8 boots were too big for the mediums, but my Burton sapphires size 7 fit perfectly. If you have a non-burton size 8 boot, get the large. I heard that Ride boots are smaller on the outside than other brands, so that would be an exception.
