Straps:
Freestyle Flipit Straps: The NOW Flipit strap made its debut on the Drive binding two years ago, and has been a staple amongst freeriders and riders who are seeking support and convenience on the fly. The Flipit strap is a traditional stitch-and-turn construction with an injected spine sandwiched between EVA and fabric.
3D Toe Straps EVA Combo: Now's top of the line toe strap. The EVA combo creates a better overall boot-to-binding fit, and enhances the grip that the EVA provides.
