Best comparison video that I have watched so far. Great close up clips

i've been riding the step-ons since they came out....love them!

Have used the step on for one season, no problem with it and love it

Excellent Video thanks for showing all the angles of the hook ins, especially the board flexing

I just started boarding again after a 15 year break, I am still using my original burton step ins from 1999 but and upgrade is due.... probably the Burtons lol, seems like good brand loyalty ;)

Great review. I went with the Burtons because they weigh less and Burtons are easy to sell and buy when needed.

great descriptive review, thanks!

Started riding the stepon two years ago and I love it. Pop off the lift stomp in and go. The best part is no more bending over or sitting in the snow! The review shows an akward entry and release for the stepon, thats now how I get in and out of em.

Still have the Pre Ride binding from Clew, and am super satisfied. Since I can use my own shoes, I am as flexible as with a normal strap binding. In terms of stability, the clew binding is a good strap binding in no way inferior. A good step in all mountain binding at a fair price

Just got my Clew bindings tonight, excited to take them out.

As a non step in fan, I'd choose the Clew. First, compatible with any boot. Second, you can hike and walk with your boots without risking any pieces because you can unstrap like a regular binding and your boots have no crucial hooks or something. The one thing I'd like to know, is the weight. I know that the step on are really light, but I don't know about the Clew. But anyway, Clew for me (if I had to choose).

Very well done video. I have the Burton Step On's and I'm very happy with them but admittedly did thrash my pant leg by getting lazy. They also have a lil' play in the heel which I'd rather not have. I will be hitting the CLEWs next season. If for no other reason, the release point is 6" higher and every bit helps at my age.

The CLEWs are dope! Super adjustable and can be dialed in for any size boot and shape! Been riding them all season, size 13 boot and 225lbs, no issues at all. Just quick riding after getting off the lift, don’t even need to stop to click in.

Fantastic video!

The Clews are amazing ❣️

Have been riding in Flow NX2 for 5 years, never been attracted by any Step-ons, but I’ll certainly be on the lookout for these bindings.

Thank you for the review. I think I am leaning towards the Clew. I have been riding K2 Clickers for the last 20 years and I blew out my boots on the cleat. I thought I was a K2 owner for life. This Clew binding makes a lot of sense! Love the idea and I love the fact that I don’t have to bend over as far to get out of my bindings. Love that they have performance in mind with no sloppy fit. Love that they dont have the issue of the K2 cleat getting clogged up with snow. Been there done that! This looks like the perfect binding! My kid told me about this and I was like no… we need to stick to the K2. After watching this video I think I like the idea of the Clew. Great job on the video!

Fantastic video.

Great review

Love the review!!! 🥰

I wear size 10.5 shoes so I bought Burton size 10.5 snow boots and bindings. The 10.5 were too tight and I had to rent a regular 11 boot with a rented board for that day. I couldn't return the 10.5 boots/bindings because I guess they were "used". I then bought a size 11 bindings and snow boots and they were still too tight. I am thinking of just getting the CLEW step-in bindings after having terrible experience with Burton.

I can watch a 1h asmr video with this satisfying "click"

very well made video TYVM

Great review! I have ridden flow nx2 gt's for 5 season's and still pefer the design. But clew is a cool idea thats been done over a few times in the past but hopfully at the price parts are available. Someone is gonna break these. Shred safe!🤙🇺🇸

That was an awesome review…

Any issues with ice or snow buildup around metal latch mechanisms?

Hey, when you tie the toestrap to its maximum is it possible to exit and entwr the binding this way or do you have to loosen up for that. I like my bindings quit firmly strapped so i would make them pretty hard closed

When you want a visual detailed comparison review 🙌✊🙏

Love the idea, i just need to see some more reviews of people actually using them.. seems hard to find. Very interested though

Liking the CLEW

Nice vid

As of 1/10/2022, CLEW bindings are sold out! They are available for pre-order at a discounted price of $379.99 (from $499.99), delivering December 2022.

I like the clews more!

picked up the '22 burton step on binding (with the new toe catch) and photon boots last Thursday, and tried them out yesterday for the first time. Fortunately I needed both boots and bindings anyways. Stepping in for the first time was a little awkward having to aim your heel first, but after a couple runs was nbd. The first 2 runs I forgot about the snowpants clip and had no issues, though that coulda been just luck, after that I put them in the clip and had zero issues. They didn't come out at all all day. Responsiveness was awesome and didn't take long to adapt to them. I'm not a very experienced boarder. I will say the up front cost is a bit intimidating too, but since pretty much everyone else I know skis the speed and convenience of the Burtons is a huge game changer. I will say I was somewhat interested in the Clews before getting the Burtons, but I couldn't find a store around me that had any, whereas Burton was hard to find, but I did find 2 stores that carried/could order them.

Is there a record of accidents in any of the batidings ?

I was your 100 subscriber

The Clews just seem like superior engineering.

Looked like ton of play in the burton ones. Think I'll order the clews and try them next season

I change know from step on to clew. I like the technique behind the step on, but my toes are much to wide for this system. After one or two rides my toes hurt so much that I couldn’t enjoy the riding. For next season I choose the clew.

Are you going to give us a video on your personal opinions on these two bindings and what ones you prefer? Maybe an end of season review and comparison? I did appreciate the objective comparison.

The front inner cleats on my 2019/20 step-ons have peeled off and have taken part of my sole with it. It is on my non-primary foot (with the most step in and outs). It was first used in March 2020 until May 2020, then the full season of 2020/21 (Dec 2020 - Apr 2021). The damage occured 1 month into the 2021/22 season (last week). It hasn't lasted 2 full seasons (ride average 2-3 times / week @ 2-3 hours per ride) before the cleats/sole peeling off. This is my first snowboard boot so I don't have a point of comparison vs other boots. Is this normal? How often do you change your boots.

Great video thanks, I know what I want now I think clew is better, save money on boots

Awesome video. Just getting back into boarding with my 8 year old daughter our 2nd season together. I've rode on 3 burton se7en boards and my last one is finally delaminating. Any advice on what took the place of the se7en?. Those claws are going to be my next purchase now that I saw your video. I lost both toe ramps on my custom LTDs from 2008 lol

hi the clew binding fit on burton board with channel fix ? like my flying attendent

I recently could test ride the step-on, the guy told me to lift the heel then slip out to the front (no twisting motion), can anyone confirm that this works better/is intended? I only find videos stating to twist out?

Hi...here a dumb question for you. Will this binding fit the santa Cruz board

STEP ON VS FLOW PLEASE!!!

Yo you can adjust the toe ramp to be closer to the cleat

I ordered clews due to the price. I have to wait till november 23 but they are half the price with not having to buy new boots.

i started with the burton step on and i loved them just getting out of them always felt awkward and weird especially if you needed to unhook on a slope. if you are not standing up with pressure on the board they are almost impossible to get off. you can but it is not easy especially if you are in an emergency. so I waned something different. So I saw some videos online about the clew bindings and i just got a hold of them and i am going to see how i like them this season.

Which one did YOU like better?

Bruh. I wish I knew about Clew before buying Step On last week.

Just got my clew bindings. The system to unhook the high backs seems stiff. Is that normal or should be more responsive? I haven’t had a chance to ride yet, I was just wondering as in the video it seems pretty effortless

hi, what about nidecker supermatic?

So much movement in the Burtons? Why are they designed that way? Seems like the Clew is more stable 🤔

I love the clever Clew solution, but Burton step-ons are on v2 already, so I see them as more reliable. I do hope enough people buy and like Clew so they stick around for next year with possible improvements. Mark regarding build quality, on video Clew bindings look plastic-y and cheap, is that how they feel in person?

That wiggle room on the step ons looks scary idk why

I want to see what it looks like walking in the clew 🤪

The clew seems smart, but it's just not as polish as burton. And you know burton is reliable. But it's awesome to see more brands making these types of easy in and out bindings.

I used Flow NX2 for a season and found I always had to micro adjust the toe strap which defeated the purpose. I switched to K2 Cinch TX which were much better. On Nov 2 2017, Burton released their Step On system which I preordered. I’ve used Step Ons for 5 seasons. Speed, convenience, all day comfort - and toe to heal response is unmatched. Psychologically it’s seems strange at first not to have a strap but once you get past that mental block you’ll be fine. My advice is to use a set of bindings for an entire season before decide which is best. But I will never go back to straps. As a Scientist and engineer… here’s why you’ll break a strap first before you’ll ever pop out of the Step On system. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i5-ga9Oarq3Ml6s.html

I own both and I prefer clew over burton because your toe then heel not heel then toe ,think about it

K2 klicker

4:37 you said the step ons didn't have any flex options, that's not true. The boots are the flex options, your binding flex becomes your boot flex.

Ur promo code ain't workin... bro

you dont necessarily have to tuck your cuff into the boot with the burton binding. It depends on the length of your pants. Mine are fine not being tucked in. My friend also never has to tuck his in either. If you wear pants that are too big/long because you think it looks cool to have your pants falling off your ass then yes you need to tuck them in.

clew using.

how about neither, thanks lol

The CLEW's blow the burtons out of the water imo just seeing this...

One looks like a toy that will break very quickly. The other looks like there were decades of R&D put into them. Clear winner here.

Given my step ons fell apart over 70 days continuous riding hammocks fell off, gas pedals fell off, toe clips worn out to the point that you could pull your foot out by day 65 and would lose the toe just doing heel turns, and the entire toe box ripped apart on both boots between day 40 and 70 I would say - go KLEW. They have STRAPS... So just avoid burton until they sort out the 5 or 6 glaring failures - most significantly they are very cheaply made.

clew ais so MUCH better. Burtons the plastic toe locks break down too fast

Mark, this is your mother. Please delete this fam!

Burton step ones are so much better than clue bindings. Clue bindings suck

Those clew bindings are hideous though

CLEW wont last!

I think it’s pretty stupid. Just learn to put bindings on standing up.

Clew is simple the best choice 😍🤍
