Jib Pad – Jib Pads have a healthy dose of padding under the heels and balls of the feet to soak up flat, hard landings. They also provide the plushest feel in the line.

Heel Pillow/Pad – Every baseplate comes stuffed with a fluffy heel pillow for cushioning. It's like a down pillow for your feet.

Pad Positioning – All padding is adjustable to fit the sole size of your boots. As an added performance benefit, the pads can be moved inward to increase toeside response slid outward to decrease toeside response.

Bumper Corners – Switchback lines the bottom rim of their baseplates with a rubber material that acts like a suspension system. The thicker sides and corners absorb vibration, promote flex and cushion landings.

Flatback – Eiki Helgason designed the Flatbacks for tip-to-tail mobility and heel-to-toe response. Their minimal curvature makes them super flexible for jibs and grabs, but their tall height supports high speed carves and hefty landings. They are anatomically shaped and have adjustable forward lean to dial in your desired responsiveness.

Clean Forward Lean – Discrete forward lean adjustment at the hinges adds highback angle while still providing a seamless fit with the highback and heelcup. This keeps heel and toe drag to a minimum and power transfer more direct.

Eames Strap – Switchback's Eames straps are composed of pre-curved foam wrapped in a durable, leather-style fabric that cloaks any boot in comfort. The additional outer strap helps spread pressure evenly across the instep. These straps suit riders looking for more response, support and comfort.

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.

Tool-Free Ladders – These straps are easy to adjust for fit and riding style and require no tools to do so. The straps simply snap in, as do their highbacks and baseplate padding. No worries of losing nuts, screws or your head, ever!
