I have the opportunity to buy the 2009 ep pro for 549. Should I grab it or should I save another 150 and get the 2010? I like the graphics equally.

This years are "15% stiffer"
Ive flexed them and don't believe it, at least it is not noticeable at all. Id go with last years for sure.

i own 07/08s, and have skied the 09/10, you can tell slightly that the new ones are stiffer, but only when carving on groomers

Do you have to put jesters on (well obviously not, but is it really that necessary?) or would my salomon z 10's work? I don't rly have the money for $350 bindings

Whats wrong with z10's? I've used them in pow, park, etc for 2 years and never had a problem. If i don't want to eject, i just turn the DIN up a bit.

Tyrolia Peak 15/18, Mojo 15/18, Head mojo 15/18, or any other Tyrolia re-painter(4frnt) are the best bindings.  If you're really cheap, get the second best by posting on TGR for some Solly S914s, S912s, 914 Labs, or good older sollys(or STH 16).

As far as which year, whatever you get cheapest..Derrick a few up got EPs from Perry that have less rocker than every other EP I've seen...go to TGR's rocker view thread and you can see the normal 2009 and normal 2010 EPs rocker a few pages deep.  Thomas, don't you think the 10s skied stiffer(still noodles) than your 08s because your 08s are all broken in?

I'm going to have another epiphany with Mac Dre and be lost again in a few hours.
