50A Durometer Outsole - The Outsole is a dampening interface made from a special TPE Rubber. The Outsole integrates with the System X design, and sits between the binding and a rider’s snowboard. The Outsole diffuses high–frequency chatter while providing rebound and cushion for high–impact landings. On the Hemlock, we use a softer durometer TPE for a more relaxed ride. On the Cypress, we use a slightly stiffer durometer TPE for added performance.
Adjustable Extruded Aluminum Heelcup - Highly durable extruded aluminum; designed to work with the 2x4 mini–disc for the amazing adjustability. Use the highback to center the foot and the disk to fine-tune your stance width. Lifetime warranty.
Bow Strap Adjuster - Our “Bow-Strap” adjuster and ladder strap swings out of the way quickly and easily, making binding entry a simple, user-friendly experience. The pre-curved strap steers clear of your boot while maintaining form and durability in even the coldest conditions.
Co-Moulded Ankle Strap - This ankle strap design wraps perfectly around a ride range of boot shapes and designs and machtes incredible power transmission with amazing comfort.
Contoured Asymmetrical Highback - The contoured asymmetrical highbacks wrap perfectly around the shaft of the rider's boot and offer great lateral and longitudinal support as well as a great mix between comfort and stability.
Forward Lean Adjustment - Forward Lean Adjustment will make sure that the rider can position the highback exactly to his or her needs. From strong forward lean for added pressure during heelside turns to no forward lean for more freedom of movement when riding street and park rails.
UltraGrip Convertible Toe Strap - This convertible toe strap offers amazing grip and will make sure that the strap stays tight to your boot.
Lifetime Warranty on Baseplate - Arbor Bindings are built to last. That's why Arbor offers a lifetime warranty of the baseplate.
System X baseplate with 15% fiberglass content - System X is a baseplate design that more efficiently transfers and evenly distributes a rider’s energy into their snowboard. No matter where pressure is applied to the binding, the System X allocates energy across the baseplate’s structural X shape, and out to the four cardinal points. The result is quicker, more effective control. When combining our System X bindings with any Arbor System Rocker or System Camber board design, rider input is transferred from the binding directly into the Grip Tech contact points creating additional edge performance.
Toolless Ankle and Toe strap adjustments - A little handle attached to the screw of your straps enables the rider to adjust the straps at any time and without having to use any tools.
