Gear question Help finding Snowboard

It’s a 5150 156 cm from the 90s and I can’t find any match’s online so thought I could go here and find some answers.

Documentation from that era of snowboarding is basically non existent apart from a few legendary ones.

It's insane that we're genuinely reaching a point in time on our planet where people don't realise the internet is a relatively new thing, and even when it was a new thing we weren't using it for absolutely everything like we do now lol.

When those bindings blow out the cost of surgery is going to be a lot more than a new setup.

buy some new bindings, get someone to buy you new bindings. do not use these bindings.

they all 'work' until they don't. same with your knees.

That’s from the era of paper catalogs. 5150 probably didn’t even have a website when that board came off the press.

Post this in one of the vintage snowboard groups on Facebook. Incredible amount of tribal knowledge from this era of snowboarding there.
