26/27 season review

The Good RideRead source
#response#adjustment#heel

At around 1.02 kg each it's on the light side of medium, a shade lighter than the regular Force. The highback twists relatively easily for a binding this responsive, with little lean.

Its industry-leading adjustment range makes it particularly good if centring the boot in the binding matters to you — even out the overhang left and right using the heel loop and gas pedal, and the response becomes symmetrical too. It also has toolless strap adjustment and highback rotation.
