@@jtuds it definitely does but you get used to putting your boot under the mesh than into the step in part. It's not that noticeable but every 8-10 step ins it gets caught on the top section. Hope that helps
Well fit is gonna be different to each person. But it's a stiff boot is what you need for the full potential of the binding. I went 12 wide because I have some fat feet. But again they do feel wider on the non wide boots from my friends who have them. Hopefully that helps.
@@Ridee_1981 it turns like a dream. Its my favorite tree board/pow board. It also digs a freaking trench. I highly recommend this board, or if you want something a little more playful go for the new almanac. I just ordered it myself. 🤘🏻 but I recommend the 157 for the almanac and 154 on the excavator depending on your weight.
I'm definitely going to have to check them! What I've noticed on the photon's from last year (my brothers pair) to this years model of photon's, they definitely feel stiffer. Love how Burton has great options.
I'm thiccc I'm 6'0 220lbs and I have a size 12 wide boot. If you have wide boots I really recommend getting the wides. And also get the photons over the rulers 🙌🏻
Thanks - trying to find some Photon step-ins but need to try them on first and no one here in flatlands has them in stock. Size 11, narrow heel but wide fore foot, so need to try them on first. Have slimmed down to 200, hope to stay there for a while...
@@BeakersBro yeah im probably 5 days on my photon's now and such a big fan. If you think you have wide feet just go for the wide's. Its really nice to be able to move your toes a little bit in boot but also not feel like its too big.
Thanks for the comment lol! The response on the bindings are really nice, sometimes can be too responsive but you get used to it after a few runs. They don't really feel different on grooms to pow.
@@P0PADVENTURES yeah you are right, this why I commented. But I noticed, it’s not the photon, I use the ion. Because I wanted upper and lower section control in the lacing. I guess both boots are very similar in flex and style, just lacing.
Superpig and Excavator are not the same. I ride both, excavator is set back and softer, Superpig is centered on side cut and a fair bit stiffer. Both great boards though 👍
@@tinsley_alex the have thee exact same shape. Yes set back but it rides the same. But I kind of rode setback anyways. Doesn't really matter both great boards.
@@P0PADVENTURES they are literally different in every spec, different waist widths, different side cut radius, different effective edge, Superpig is 10mm taper, Excavator is 20mm taper. They are nowhere near the same board. Not trying to start an argument, just stating facts so people don't get misguided.
Any more issues with the mesh bit on the binding getting hit by your boot? I saw another reviewer mention the same thing…

I have a question, what’s the fit of the photon boots? I have 10(43 eu), do I need a bigger number? Ty for the answer 😊

Yes, lot! Ty so much!
That K2 Board is sick! Dope graphic and color!
Most definitely
You should see it in person
The first vintage of the excavator is the best graphic and it has a faster base
@@P0PADVENTURESdo you like this board ? Good for carving or only for Pow ?

Have had photon step ons for 3 seasons changed last season to ion step ons so much better! A bit stiffer but the liner is so superior IMO.

Would you recommend these for 240lb guy with size 12 feet? My flows are terrible
I would recommend the step on's from the flows. They feel way more secure. Especially when you have wide feet.
I think you mess up with the right and left, please check
Yeah definitely, the release latch is on the outside of the binding.
what do you weigh and what size boot?

Step ONS > Strap Bindings
Ok....Cool,Comfy&Hot...but hows the response, the riding, in the groom, pow or thignt tree riding!? Txs
Thanks for the comment lol! The response on the bindings are really nice, sometimes can be too responsive but you get used to it after a few runs. They don't really feel different on grooms to pow.
I ride the superpig with the photon and genesis 😅.
Heck yeah! i love that setup! the k2 excavator is pretty much a superpig. Legit the exact same nose and waist just the tail is different.
