Burton Malavita EST Snowboard Bindings - 2011/2012
The Burton Malavita EST bindings are do-it-all, handle-it-all bindings. Electrify your ride this season with the addition of the Hinge?it enhances snap at the heels for skateboardlike olllieing. The EST™ platform offers endless stance options and a truer flex from your board; plus, with personalized cushioning options, you'll enjoy ultimate feel and control. New Hinge technology allows your heels and the baseplates to move independently for a never-before-felt lateral flex. Mimicking the biomechanical movements in skateboarding, the Hinge flexes dynamically with your legs for increased foot roll and more powerful ollies. 30% short-glass/nylon composite EST baseplates enhance response and power without sacrificing the mobility that freestyle riders demand; reground materials reduce waste. Removable AutoCANT SensoryBED™ dual-density EVA cushioning lets your boots settle into a more natural position; B3 gel cushioning eats up vibration and impact. With AutoCANT underfoot you'll enjoy improved comfort, reduced fatigue and smoother, more direct board control—no matter what your stance width or angles are. Extendable toe ramps reduce toe drag and increase responsiveness. Canted Living Hinge™ highbacks eliminate hardware to reduce weight, and let you adjust forward lean and highback rotation indepently of each other. Riders who prefer a more playful and relaxed feel will dig the zero forward lean; you can still choose to crank highbacks forward on-the-fly without tools. Reinforced rubbery material on the inside of highbacks wraps and hugs your boots; run your ankle straps a little looser and still get lightning fast turning response. Improve heel-edge response by running your highbacks parallel to your board's edges. Asym Superstrap ankle straps feature a laterally supportive asymmetric shape for powerful drive; they can be reversed if you prefer greater mobility.
