3BT – Tip-to-tail camber with rockered sidebases in the tips. It's not rocker, it's not camber, it's Triple Base Technology. So when you stand in your bindings the contact edges are lifted up and around the tail and nose. The pressure from your weight powers up the camber for pop and precision, and since the edges are lifted out of the snow, you won't catch an edge.

Soft/Medium Flex

3BT Asym – A twist on the twin design that better balances your body on the board with a shorter edge uplift area on the heelside, which offers better heelside stability. The toeside edge, where you have more control and leverage over the board, has a longer uplift section for a loose, playful feeling. The board shape remains completely twin, it's only the uplift that is asymmetrical.

Pop Core – Strong poplar wood core. Flexible, with good elastic properties for presses and pop.

Carbon Bi-Ax – Bi-ax laminates placed on the top and bottom of the wood core with the fiberglass layers aligned at 45 degrees to the edges. This creates an easy and forgiving flex, making for great board feel and control. An added carbon inlay gives the snowboard a powerful and snappy pop.

Extra Layup – Horizontal carbon stringers improve your pop, reinforce the binding area while still allowing for smooth presses.

SB – When waxed regularly, the highly porous sintered base material will not only last a long time, but also give you the fastest ride out there.

Die-Cut Base – Base color displayed may not be available. Base colors may vary.

Lightning Edge – Thinner edges enable you to carve with more feeling and precision and they weigh less.

Party Pattern – The 4x2 / 24 pattern offers maximum precision for your binding's position with 22 inserts for a large total stance width range.

Jib Pad – Switchback's Jib Pad is designed with thicker padding under the toes and balls of the feet for more cushioning in flat and hard landings. They also offer the most plush and comfortable feel in the line.

Bumper Corners – Switchback places a rubber bushing along the bottom rim of the binding to absorb vibration, enhance flex, and help cushion harsh landings. The corners and sides are thicker to protect your topsheet and promote flex, and the toes and heels are thinner for more direct control and terrain feel.

Direct Steering – The bumper bushing is contoured with less material around the heels and toes for improved edge-to-edge response and smooth power transfer. It also helps you feel the terrain in a smooth kind of way.

Less Material – Switchback designs their baseplates with a minimal amount of rigid material touching the board's topsheet when mounted. This not only saves weight but also gives the binding and your board a more natural 360-degree flex pattern underfoot.

Wrapback – Originally developed by Halldor, these anatomically wrapping high-backs provide more calf support to make those presses proper and help stick landings. They're slightly rotated and have adjustable forward lean for the perfect amount of response and control.

Eames Strap – Switchback's Eames straps are composed of a rugged leather style cover and a solid pre-molded EVA lining for a more responsive and powerful feel. The shaping and materials easily form and mold around any boot contour for a plush fit.

Easy Access – Switchback's strap design allows the straps to naturally fall open and away for easy in and out. Get in and out quickly without stepping on your straps.
