After riding non releasables for a few years, I decided to try the Spruce Riser system with the Head SL100 releasable binding system that was bundled with the Spruce 120 skiboards on special at SBOL. I took them out for my first day out of the year and put them through everything I could going full speed up on edge around switchbacks and through some glades with some fresh powder (the eastern north american kind) and it plowed through all of these with ease. The height difference from my Bomber elites to the riser is quite a bit, but I found it to be beneficial to getting up on edge and didnt notice much difference after a couple of runs — even the weight isnt noticeable.
