Flex
- 7/10 – A medium-stiff flex that balances precision and comfort for all-mountain performance. Responsive enough for powerful turns, yet forgiving enough for long days of lapping.
Baseplate
- Magnesium Fiber Flex Control Drive Plate – A layered construction featuring magnesium fibers, an UHMW core, and an eco-sublimated topsheet. It mirrors the dynamic flex of your snowboard and enhances drive, rebound, and edge control.
- Dynamic Composite Response – The plate’s construction creates advanced energy return and a responsive ride.
- Unibody Chassis – Lightweight polymer frame designed to absorb vibration while maintaining strength. Includes an adjustable toe ramp for stance tuning.
- Canted Footbed – Aligns your stance for improved ergonomics, reduced joint stress, and better leverage.
Highback
- Performance Polymer Nylon Highback – Medium-flexing highback built for all-around terrain versatility. Slightly asymmetric and cupped to deliver smooth lateral mobility without losing heel-to-toe support.
- The Cube – Tool-free forward lean adjuster with 4 positions (10°, 14°, 18°, 22°). Urethane construction adds shock absorption and quick visual reference.
Straps
- Dual Band Ankle Strap (Soft) – A two-part design with a flexible compression window for freedom of movement and a supportive outer band for edge hold. Comfortable, responsive, and reliable for all-day riding.
- Grip Form Toe Strap – Flexible overlay panel conforms to any boot shape for secure hold without pressure points.
Buckles
- Forged Aluminum Buckles – Strong, lightweight, and easy to operate even with gloves on. Delivers consistent hold and smooth release.
Additional Features
- Large Axis Disk Compatibility – Mounts to 2x4, 4x4, and Channel™ boards. Allows for precise stance alignment both heel-to-toe and tip-to-tail.
- Tool-Free Strap Adjustments – Make fit tweaks quickly without needing a screwdriver.
