What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "The Cypress feels locked in without being overbearing. The highbacks give me the support I want on steep terrain, and the BioStrap is comfortable enough that I don’t think about it all day. It's exactly how a binding should feel."When the terrain calls for precision and power, the Arbor Cypress Binding steps up. Designed for freeride-focused riders, it blends a supportive, asymmetrical highback with a 30% fiberglass System X baseplate for direct energy transfer and smooth control from groomers to big mountain lines. The plant-based BioStrap and EVA footbed keep comfort on lock while reducing environmental impact. Adjustable heel cups and cast aluminum buckles add the fine-tuning and durability you need for seasons of performance. Whether we’re carving hardpack, slashing pow, or navigating technical steeps, the Cypress delivers confidence in every turn.
