Tour Mode:
Dual Ride Stride: Saving energy in the backcountry can be the difference between going for a second lap, going for a longer tour, or going home because you’re wiped out. All Karakoram splitboard bindings come standard with Dual Ride-Stride forward lean. With a -8° forward lean setting, Stride Mode allows you to stride and glide further with every step. Dual Ride modes allow you to effortlessly switch between railing carves and surfing turns. Drive Mode consists of a preset user-adjustable forward lean (0°-22°), and surf mode can be activated without unstrapping (11° or 0°). Simply turn and go. Dual RideStride is the fastest and easiest forward lean adjustment available.
Smooth Touring Pivot: Independent sleeves rotate freely on a fixed thru-axle, similar to a bike axle, making these stiff and smooth. They're wide for touring rigidity, they shed snow well, and the quick-releasing bracket allows for simple transitions.
Dual-Speed Riser with Heel Lock Pole Basket Flip: Flip up/down with pole basket on the fly. Retractable Heel-Lock included.
Heel Lock: On-the-fly heel lock down Release load equivalent to DIN 6 Heel-Lock folds out of way when not needed.
Ride Mode:
Ride Mode 3.0: Lighter. Better. Faster. Stronger.
A smaller footprint with less material makes the Ride Mode 3.0 the lightest
splitboard interface. More clearance for snow makes Drop-On changeovers
better and faster. Active Joining pulls your splitboard together and keeps your
feet spring-loaded to the board, giving you direct power transfer to the edge and
instant response in a way that passive, slip-fit puck splitboard systems cannot.
Active Joining: No slop with instant response. Pre-loaded contact points create an ultra solid connection between your bindings and splitboard.
Interlocking Seam Tabs: No separation: tabs interlock across the seam of your board, interlocking and pre-loading the two halves for a solid ride.
