PivotMount Technologies
Only found on Rome bindings, there is nothing like our PivotMount
Technology to let riders control whether they have a flexible, mid-range
or powerful toeside performance profile. To change toeside response,
we make it super easy to move where your ankle strap sits on your ankle.
Simply loosen a screw and snap the PivotMount’s arm into different
positions. In addition to asymmetric options that riders can explore,
we suggest three primary positions:
-
1Position in the LOW position for maximum tweak
-
2Position straps in the MID position for a balance of power and freedom (this is the default setting)
-
3Position straps in the HIGH position for driving max power into your toeside edge.
UltraAdjust Ankle Strap
Featured on the Targa, this model gives riders three easy-to-adjust
levels of flex in one binding. Because we believe in letting riders
customize toeside response.
PowerChord Highback
The PowerChord highback is the most powerful model in our line, perfect
for riders like Stale who demand quick, undiluted response.
V-Rod Baseplates
Another way we build Flex With Pop into our bindings is through our
V-Rod baseplates. In our V-Rod Ultralight Baseplate and the V-Rod
Baseplate, we create direct connection from front to back from your big
toe to the lateral side of your heel. At the same time, we raise the
corner of the baseplate near your little toe and the opposing corner on
the medial side of your heel. This combination gives you power edge to
edge AND flexibility side to side. It improves board flex by reducing
the plastic contacting the board. Here are the specific ways V-Rod
technology delivers Flex With Pop, while also improving board flex.
- Edge-to-Edge Power from the “rod” of edge to edge contact
- Proper Snowboard Flexibility from the raised baseplate corners and added dampening material
- Minimal baseplate contact to board for more natural board flex (the
V-Rod Ultralight leads the industry with only 1.56% of baseplate
contacting the board)
Full UnderWrap Technology
The pop comes before the flex in this platform. Featuring our original
UnderWrap concept, this platform features four points of heel hoop
connection with two UnderWrap connections in the toe area of the
baseplate. The result is a connection that drives power into both edges
of the board through added leverage over the binding, while still
maintaining the proper side-to-side flex and feel that snowboarding
demands.
ConformGrip 2.0 Toe Strap
Featured on our mid to high-end bindings, the ConformGrip 2.0 uses a TPU
frame with a web of overmolded elastic material to conform and grip to
the toe of any boot. Our use of high-friction over-molded material
stretches over the boot and locks your foot in place with a minimal
amount of pressure. The result is better foot hold and higher comfort.
D30 SubBase Pad
On the Katana and our Stale colorway of the Targa, we use D30 under the
baseplate for the highest level of impact absorption available.
Compared to standard EVA, D30 absorbs 30% more impact. The result is
premium dampening for bigger drops and flatter landings.
