Snowboard Bindings

How We Choose Snowboard Bindings

• Strap in bindings are the most common type of binding you’ll find. They’re reliable and secure, and come in every price range, from beginner and inexpensive to high performance and pricy.
• Rear entry bindings are made for ease of transitions. The highback pops down so you can slide your boot into the binding. When you step down the highback pops into place and the straps cinch down snugly over your boot.
• Step On bindings are closer in design to ski bindings as the boot clicks into the binding securely when you step down. This system is super easy to use and minimizes the time spent sitting in the cold snow transitioning.
• Binding flex is often on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Many beginners and park riders gravitate toward softer bindings while freeriders and powder hunters could prefer bindings on the stiffer side. All-mountain riders generally pick a binding somewhere in the middle, with a flex rating between about 3 and 7.
