Details
PERFORMANCE
The binding exists out of a Hangar 1.0 Baseplate which is built out of 15% glass fiber. This high percentage of glass fiber gives the binding its stiffness and feel. The Flex Hinge highback is canted 5 degrees for more control. The highback is wider and supports wider and lower women’s calves. This gives the binding a very loose and comfortable feel that invites for playful and creative riding.
- Flex Hinge highback with contour
- Post is 50% GF Nylon
- Hanger 1.0 is nylon reinforced with 15% fiberglass
- Buckles 2.0
COMFORT
The SIEVA strap is short for Single-Injected EVA which means that the entire strap is made out one solid piece of injected EVA. It eliminates seems and glue and makes the strap lighter, more durable and comfortable. The 3D EVA toe straps are guaranteed to give a good snug fit around the nose of any boot. The 3D shape keeps the toe strap from sliding of.
- SIEVA straps
- 3-D minimal toe straps
- NOW tool-less adjuster straps
- EVA padding
USE
All Now bindings come standard with a set of 4x4 discs. This disc can be mounted on all snowboards apart from Burton boards. In order to mount the binding onto the Burton channel a Now Channel disc is required. You can order this disc separately at Snowcountry.
- 4X4 disc is 50% GF Nylon
- Skate-Tech
Inspired by how easily and efficiently a skateboard turns; major components of our system mimic both the function and description of skateboard trucks. The ‘Hanger’ powerfully transfers energy input from the straps to the bushings and onto the edges of your board. The Kingpin acts as a fulcrum, magnifying this energy through leverage. Traditional bindings diminish energy transfer by the flexing and bending of their baseplate, forcing you to crank your straps down harder, ride with more forward lean, or run taller and stiffer highbacks. This all leads to more foot fatigue and pain. NOW bindings bypass the middle of the snowboard and direct your energy right onto the board’s edges. They simply transfer more power to the board with less work, meaning your feet will stay more relaxed and comfortable, longer.
