"Alright, so now I'm going to teach you how to strap into your bindings. You have a nose and you have a tail. Your nose or your front foot is always going to be the one that's strapped in first. When you get to the top of the mountain is when you strap in your back foot. So, here we go. We're going to slightly lift up our pant leg, put it inside our binding. This is our heel cup. We're going to tighten it to the extent of where it doesn't tighten any more. This is your toe strap. It may seem that your; just doesn't fit directly on your toe, but it may fit up here. So, whatever feels most comfortable to you. You can just tighten that down. Tighten it down pretty firm. Not too tight, because you don't want your ankle to fall asleep, but tight enough to where it's not going to fall out and too where your ankle doesn't move. Because, if your ankle moves; that is not good it's very likely that you'll be breaking your ankle. Binding have a lot to do with how you snowboard. So, pull your snowboard pant down and you'll be on your way."
