Always strap into the front snowboard binding first. Your back foot needs to be free for skating to and from the chair lift. Remove any loose snow from the binding. If you have traditional strap snowboard bindings, push your heel into the heel cup, buckle the ankle buckle, then buckle the toe strap last. When you are ready to start riding down the hill, you can strap in to your other snowboard binding the same way. See similar questions...

Maintain your snowboard bindings. Your board is not the only piece of your gear that needs regular tuning. Check the nuts, bolts, and screws on your bindings before you head out on the slopes each time and when you tune your board. These parts can come apart ? the constant pounding and vibrating of riding can cause these fasteners to come loose, but you don't have to let it ruin your day. Just check. See similar questions...

A step in binding must be aligned perfectly with your boot to work properly. This can be awkward, especially when the board is not on a pretty flat surface. It also is non-visual, much like a clipless bike pedal, which can be frustrating. Though maybe not as quick, we feel a strap binding is a better all around system and provides better support and control of your snowboard. See similar questions...

Using your randonnee bindings for all your skiing, resort and backcountry, is known as "one rig." The wisdom of using bindings as "one rig" depends on a few factors. If you're primarily doing laps using ski lifts you'll be covering an immense amount of vertical that places wear on the bindings they were not designed for. More, though the Fritschi toe release is adequate, it's not as highly engineered as the latest alpine bindings. See similar questions...
