Flex:
Flex Rating: 9 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Baseplate:
Response Tri-Foam Foot Pillow: Premium full length foam footbed made with three
different densities of EVA foam. The heel and toe
are soft for max comfort, the center is mid-stiff for
precise response and the bottom of the footbed is
stiff for solid support.
Carbon Reinforced Hanger 3.0: Binding hanger design featuring a wider bushing footprint that’s closer to
the edges for enhanced board connection and faster energy transfer. The
Hanger 3.0 is also lighter weight and has a lower inner lateral wall for better
ankle mobility and high volume boot fit. Nylon reinforced with 30% Recycled Carbon Fiber.
Flushcup Technology
Highback:
Asym Flax/Carbon Wide-back: Designed for maximum reponse. Flax/Carbon composite highback with
extended width upper section for improved toe-side turn response. Made from Flax and 3K Carbon fiber.
Asymmetrical Shape Follows Leg Angles
Extended Upper Wing for Improved Turn Response
Tool-Less Forward Lean Adjustment
Highback Flex: 9 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Straps:
Power Spine Ankle Straps: Two part molded ankle strap with a wider bottom
section for flexible comfort and a stiffer center spine
for unmatched response. Flip-It Strap compatible
(Surf mode vs Freeride mode).
3D Flex Fit 2.0 Toe Straps: 3D Flex Fit 2.0 toe straps dynamically stretch to fit
any shape boot. The new minimalist design is even
lower profile and every bit as comfortable, durable
and responsive as the original design.
Intelligent Straps: Hinge connectors keep your ankle strap out of the
way when you step in to strap in, and curved ladders
make it easy to line up the buckle and quickly ratchet
down.
Tool-Less Strap Adjustment
Hinge Connector Strap Attachment + Pre-Curved Ladders
Buckles:
Asymmetrical Buckles: Bombproof buckles made from aircraft-grade alloy
featuring ultra-strong levers and springs. Triple action
ratchet design increase speed of entry and release.
Additional Features:
Freeride Mode: Position the wide half of the strap above the buckle for more lateral support and board response. Use Hard Bushings for maximum response.
Surf Mode: Position the wide half of the strap below the buckle for solid heel support but more ankle flexibility for getting loose. Use Soft Bushings for a looser, more dynamic surf feel.
Included Bushings: Hard - All Mountain / Freeride Mode (Surf Mode bushings available separately)
Skate Tech: The components of the SkateTech design mimic the function of a
skateboard truck. The “Hanger” acts as a lever that transfers energy
input from the straps to the “Bushings” and onto the board edges. The
“Kingpin” acts as the fulcrum for the “Hanger” and magnifies the energy
transfer through leverage. Traditional bindings lose energy when the
baseplate flexes and bends unevenly. The energy loss forces you to
crank your straps tighter and ride with more forward lean to gain the
same control. Uneven pressure and tight straps lead to more foot fatigue
and pain. By evenly pivoting over the “Post”, the middle of your board
flexes more uniformly and your energy inputs are focused directly on
your edge. Your feet stay more relaxed and more comfortable because
the bindings transfer power to the board with less work.
