Binding Type: All Mountain Freestyle
Flex: 6-8/10 (Medium-Stiff)
Board Compatibility: This EST binding is only compatible with Burton boards featuring the M6 Channel system.
Baseplate:
Genesis EST
The Genesis EST baseplate features a dual-component construction, comprised of a 30% short-glass/nylon composite and a softer material underfoot. This gives you a responsive yet playful ride that is stiffer edge to edge for improved balance. This EST-specific baseplate removes the rigid material under your foot and replaces it with a flexible cushioned footbed, reducing the weight of the binding, increasing board feel, and maintaining the natural flex of the board.
The Hinge
Unique to EST bindings, The Hinge activates medial and lateral flex for a smoother feel and easier ollies, while allowing the board to flex more naturally and reducing stress and fatigue on your legs.
Highback:
Genesis Highback
This 18% short-glass/nylon composite zero-lean canted design follows the contours of your legs to maximise control and comfort, and has a mid flex for a perfect balance of high end performance and playfulness.
Kickback Hammock
Acting like suspension for your bindings, the Kickback Hammock is a two-piece heel hugging highback that absorbs vibration and increases response.
Buckles:
Double Take Ratchets
Burtons Double Take Ratchets feature one of the quickest and easiest ratchet designs on the market. Helical teeth and 'insta-click' engagement combine for increased torque per crank, and fewer cranks needed to get to your desired tightness.
Straps:
Hammockstrap
The Hammockstrap features a low profile and reduced weight for a more comfortable fit, along with a stitchless construction for maximum response with minimal materials. The pre curved design fits smoothly around your boot and won't be giving you any pressure points.
Flex Slider
The Burton Flex Slider gets your ankle strap out of the way, so gone are the days of battling with your ankle strap when you're trying to get your boot into your binding. These flex points are specially designed to be super strong as well, so they are just as durable despite the constant flexing.
Supergrip Capstrap 2.0
The Burton Supergrip Capstrap 2.0 is one of the best toe straps on the market, with a super grippy interior that holds onto your boot in freezing temperatures, and a design that hugs the contours of most boots. This new design takes the Supergrip Capstrap one step further, and offers better hold than ever before.
Cushioning:
AutoCANT Sensorybed Cushioning System
This dual-density EVA footbed works to settle your boot into a naturally comfortable position, regardless of your stance width and angles, which helps to align your joints and gives you less fatigue and a more comfortable ride.
B3 Gel
B3 Gel under your heel provides ultimate dampening for hard landings and rough snow, and is formulated to withstand repeated impacts and cold temperatures without any reduction in performance.
