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.
