25/26 · 24/25 season review
A binding with a wide adjustment range. The top of the highback folds back easily, so it doesn't bite into your calf and twists readily, while the rebound after you flex it is still there.
Apart from the disc, nothing contacts the board — it's all EVA — so how naturally the board flexes when you butter is comparable to the best mini-disc bindings. Changing the ankle strap angle tunes the response between medium and medium-quick.

What the review liked
- ✓The top of the highback folds back easily, so it doesn't bite into your calf
- ✓No contact beyond the disc, so the board flexes naturally when buttering
- ✓Changing the ankle strap angle tunes the response — it works across many boards
- ✓The highback rotates easily, making it simple to line up with your heel edge
What the review found lacking
- —On the heavy side of normal (about 1 kg each)
- —The adjustment isn't as finely stepped as the very best (Rome Katana and the like)
