Flex:
Flex Rating: 5 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Baseplate:
Comfort Foam Foot Pillow: Full length EVA foam footbed that maximizes binding
comfort while minimizing foot fatigue. The 3D molded
footbed surface offers supreme traction for any boot
tread pattern and prevents snow build-up.
Hanger 1.0: Hanger pivots on the kingpin like a lever, allowing lightning fast edgeto-edge energy transfer. True baseless design that delivers the most
even board flex of any binding on the market.
Flushcup Technology
Three Degree Canted Footbed
Highback:
Dynamic Flex Highback: Mid-wide profile and friendly, ergonomic flex helps you turn, tweak and slash.
Asym Highback with Small Lateral Side Wing for Added Toe Side Turn Power
Stiffer Middle Spine for Solid Turn Performance
Thinner, Flexible Side Edges to Eliminate Calf Bite
Tool-Less Forward Lean Adjustment
Highback Flex: 5 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Straps:
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.
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).
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:
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.
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.
Universal Mounting Disc: Compatible with 4x2, 4x4 and EST/Channel
