PERFORMANCE
The AsymWrap Fixed Heel Hoop only runs under the ball of the foot on the inside of the foot. This asymmetrical design ensures a natural flex of the board underfoot.
The Powercraft Highback features a Polystrand™ layered composite fiber upper, overmolded into a nylon lower region for next level heelside power, without sacrificing torsional tweakability.
Rome's highbacks and baseplates are made of up a variety of combined materials. These composites are all designed to flex differently and provide different levels of response and tweakability.
- Baseplate: Asymwrap (70% nylon, 30% carbon)
- Heelcup: Aluminum
- Highback: Powercraft Highback (70% polystrand, 30% nylon)
COMFORT
DuraCush™ is an expanded thermoplastic polyurethane material, or E-TPU, used in Rome their SubBase pads and on footbeds to provide advanced chatter absorption and make their bindings as comfortable as possible.
- Ankle strap: Auxtech ultraflex Ankle Strap
- Toestrap: Auxtech Progrip Toe Strap
- Footbed: DuraCush™
USE
The binding is equipped with a PivotMount Max, a metal spindle that pulls the ankle strap according to the boot shape and the tension on the strap. The higher the strap, the more responsiveness; the lower it is, the more feeling and movement it provides.
The highback can be rotated and canted.
Highback Canting is built so that riders can adjust the angle of their highback to mirror the angle of their lower leg for increased connection and stability.
The baseplate can be shifted, and the disc allows a large range.
This binding is equipped with a 4x4 disc by default and is compatible with all standard insert patterns (as well as the Burton channel).
- Disc: 4x4 disc
- Adjustment: PivotMount Max Technology, Highback Rotation, Highback Canting & Bombproof Buckles; Fast Entry Ladders; Baseplate Shifting
