In short

The Katana AW FASE™ represents the latest evolution of one of snowboarding’s most iconic bindings. Built on the high-performance, fully adjustable Katana AW platform, it introduces the FASE™ Fast Entry System designed to enhance the Katana’s renowned responsiveness and lightweight construction. The result is a binding that delivers the same legendary performance with even quicker, more convenient entry and exit.

In detail

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 binding combines stiffness with feel. With its Asym FlexChannel highback it's very comfortable despite its stiffness and still retains its natural flex.
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% fiberglass)
  • Heelcup: Aluminum
  • Highback: 85% Nylon Highback (85% nylon, 15% fiberglass)

COMFORT

The binding is equipped with A game changing strap built with the legendary hold of AuxTech, this one-piece design provides next level locked-in hold and undefeated comfort. The ProGrip Toe Straps are very stretchable and cover your boot in an unprecedented way. The open structure and geometric figures evenly distribute the pressure on your boot, ensuring a good grip. The strap is made out of a single piece, which makes it very durable.
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 Pro Ankle Strap
  • Toestrap: Auxtech Progrip Toe Strap
  • Footbed: DuraCush™

FASE

  • AutoBack
    The key to the revolutionary FASE Fast Entry System, the AutoBack, allows for hands-free entry into the binding. This intuitive design automatically closes as the boot enters the binding and and opens when you lift your boot out. The AutoBack also folds flat for skating, chairlifts, and storage.
  • FastStrap
    An innovative long ankle ladder that remains connected for ultra-fast, one-handed strapping-in. With a classic ratchet design to fine tune ankle strap tension, the FastStrap complements the AutoBack’s automatic closure system so riders can strap-in faster than ever before.
  • Locked-In Toe Strap
    Simply set it and forget it. Designed to remain in position to complement the Fast Entry System. The Locking Slap Ratchet 2.0 and unique tri-toothed ladder allow you to ‘set it and forget it’ or make easy on-the-fly fit adjustments.


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.

Rome's BombProof Buckles are a one-piece forged aluminum construction for better grip and durability. Built with wider stance teeth area for more engagement, this makes for easier ratcheting and increased protection from wear and tear to your ladder straps.

Rome's bindings feature FastEntry Technology for super quick and easy entry into the binding. The pre-curved ladder on the ankle and toe straps are designed to pop open and help keep the straps out of your way while getting your boot into the binding. Strap in faster and easier thanks to FastEntry!

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 & Baseplate Shifting, Bombproof Buckles, Fast Entry Ladders
