Wow, didn't know that bindings would sell out so quickly at sierra! only been here shopping this season and browsing end last season, but i didnt' think that their binding stock would run out so fast. Is this due to the winter Olympics you think?

It may be due to the fact the season is over?

Last year certainly had more available, but the sales weren't as soon and no international buyers for Burton gear. However, EST bindings were in major shortage this year. Even sold out in M before the sale started

yeh, sucks a bit that they sold out so quick out of EST bindings. I've purchased a set @ full US price, still cheaper than buying in Aus.

All the top end FLOW bindings have disappeared ... shame. Had so many people wanting to buy them ... including myself.
All the good RIDE bindings are gone. Hope Sierra find some more.

I know what you mean.. at this point I'm just hoping for some returns, and if not, I have to wait until labor day weekend for my local shop's "big" sale

Considering that the US season is winding down, with places in the PNW, Sierras, and Rockies being the only places open past the end of April, it's not that big of a surprise. Bindings are not made at a 1:1 ratio with boards, which leaves them in shorter supply. Add in Sierra's awesome sales and you end up with no bindings left. Just the way it is.

For Sierra and their marketing team online and in store, they do one helluva job keeping the customer happy.
With what's available now, I'm surprised with what they have left in bindings. |

Did you google it?
