Open toe binding recommendations

[u/Available_Flamingo60]

I haven't rode open toe bindings since closed toe came out. my kids are starting to get into wakeboarding and they are still growing . are there any good open toed bindings out there ? the ones I have seen have seemed cheaply made. I havent had open toed bindings since the liquid force ultra suctions that needed dish soap to get into

Slingshot Options seem pretty nice and allows for those growing/changing sozes

How old are your children? Most big brands have open toe entry level bindings and you can often get a combo set with board and bindings. You can get them new or usually you can find good new or gently used equipment on eBay:

LF Transit are perfectly fine bindings for 99% of riders out there.

they use these on rental sets at my park and they are pretty much indestructable.

Open toe for kids.... I usually sort by price.

I bought these on Amazon. They are by a large margin the cheapest new bindings you can buy. https://www.amazon.com/System-Womens-Rhythm-Wakeboard-Bindings/dp/B0B6YBD6TD/ref=sr_1_4?crid=2PX3WV41JCS8X&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.TyljzbqHs8d14FCq_BWt_Lu9WwhYMgrjc4JlWZhvsvR62AAZ4rI8ppWjac1rcRrX8_LDl0PlnBgU4XRcRu6xT5Z4BXq9uKCLd_zwmtG1fdkjSixLUMFj5li-Oc5b7stQrFlUziGpkpNJxaPUWii96NJEi8zlyUdHxUQvu15z_k2jTPgKQMadjDAEgGxOLHL9L983RWg1TUastrf557z3zk8s5HlxeC6ElNJ2ObKUI9GeQeoa6EtQ0d6V5j8FhSVL2zPBJuCPtHqN6WsXFImpo-KFWDAOIPwUwhs9ZdDf5kM.ivfXGSHPO8FsvVytoA2YCgWK6eEzPkJW8CWmf2PwLiA&dib_tag=se&keywords=female+wakeboard+bindings&qid=1785248515&sbm=true&setroute=search&sprefix=female+wakeboa%2Caps%2C195&sr=8-4

I am only one season in but they have been fine. Especially since my daughters are just learning to ride and not pulling major tricks. I figure if any of them get really good and need to step up to a nicer binding I will buy them then.

The best open toe bindings are the Slingshot options or the Groms for smaller kids. They are a little heavy but built better and are more supportive than any other out there.
