The Ride A-8 Snowboard Binding is designed for all-mountain performance. This binding is precise and aggressive for the snowboarder that demands the most from their bindings. The Reversible Ankle Strap provides two riding positions. Ride with the stiff part of the strap on the top for a more aggressive feel or swap the straps so the soft part is on top for more flexibility and lateral movement. The A-Series aluminum chassis provides the reactive flex and power transfer of aluminum with less rigidity than previous designs. The cored nylon highback reduces weight while still providing a responsive ride. The canted footbed aligns your joints with a 2.5 angle while providing more leverage over the tip and tail of your board. Integrated rubber PODS make for an even smoother ride, and the TPU basepad damps out high-speed vibrations. The A-8 is designed for an advanced rider looking for all-mountain performance. A-Series Aluminum ChassisThe A-Series Chassis provides the reactive flex and power transfer of aluminum underfoot. The extruded aluminum heel-cup provides ultimate toe heel response. The A-Series Chassis was designed to be less rigid than previous designs allowing the aluminum to flex more under the rider's weight for a much more reactive ride. Because the chassis is 100% aluminum, it's narrower than nylon or plastic chassis allowing the board to flex more freely from tip to tail. Nylon HighbackTraditional highback material that offers a predictable mix of response and comfort. Reversible Ankle StrapDesigned to be worn in two positions: one for hard charging, performance and the other for a more relaxed feel that lets you really lean into your ride. Utilizes a strong upper and a soft flexible lower portion to support all of your riding needs. Minimalist with Overmold Toe StrapThe same minimalist toe strap with the addition of an overmolded layer of urethane that assures the strap stays in place over the rider's desired position over the boot. Linkage RatchetDesigned to improve ladder durability and eliminate ratchet wag, resulting in a smoother user experience with the same hold you expect. Canted With PODS FootbedAn ultralight footbed that uses subtle angles to align the ankles and knees to a more natural and comfortable position. The angle also gives leverage to press the board for huge pop, without affecting your preferred stance width. Urethane pods are bonded to the footbed under the heels and forefront of the rider's foot. These pods absorb high-speed vibrations for a smoother ride and smooth out larger impacts from flat landings. A-Series TPU Base PadA urethane base pad sits under the binding and wraps up the side. The urethane provides ultimate damping properties underfoot and support as it wraps up the side of the binding, increasing response as the rider drives their weight into turns. Aluminum DiscThe aluminum disc is more rigid than the plastic disc. This disc is suited for the rider demanding precision in their binding. table, th, td {border: 1px solid black; border-collapse: collapse;}th {text-align: left;}th {padding-left: 6px;}td {padding-left: 6px;} SIZE Small Medium Large US Men's 4 - 8 6 - 10 10.5+ US Women's 5 - 9 7 - 11 | Ride A-8 Snowboard Bindings Medium - Black | The House
