Built exclusively for Burton boards with The Channel™, the EST platform eliminates traditional mounting hardware beneath your feet for enhanced board feel and natural flex. A 45% short-glass/nylon composite baseplate delivers strong edge-to-edge response, while FullBED cushioning absorbs impact and reduces chatter.
