THE RESPONSIVENESS OF A HIGH-PERFORMANCE BINDING MIXED WITH THE LIGHTNESS OF ALUMINUM
The A-6 is designed for all around performance for the rider that wants the responsive feel of aluminum underfoot. The Two-Piece Ankle Strap contours to the shape of your boot and provides durability without extra weight. Urethane in the Slimeback Highback provides a smooth ride and allows for maximum lateral mobility. The A-Series Aluminum Chassis provides the reactive flex and power transfer of aluminum with less rigidity than previous designs. The canted footbed aligns your joints with a 2.5 degree angle while providing more leverage over the tip and tail of your board. Take this binding anywhere in any conditions. We promise it wont disappoint.

CONSTRUCTION FEATURES
|
A - SERIESA-Series Chassis is built with a forged aluminum heel-cup (all new construction) bonded with a new stamped aluminum tray. This is for the customer that prefers the precise feel of aluminum (current Ride binding customers). ? Optimized feel of aluminum
? Less heavy hardware/overlapping metal that makes the bindings stiff ? Ability for more torsional roll in the heel ? Eliminates slipping heelcups |
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 that previous designs allowing the aluminum to flex more under the rider’s weight allowing for a much more reactive ride. Because the Chassis is 100% aluminum, it is narrower than nylon or plastic chassis allowing the board to flex more freely from tip to tail. |
SLIMEBACK HIGHBACKHighbacks utilize urethane similar to our Slimewalls technology. The Slimeback material absorbs shock and damps vibrations to help smooth the ride while providing fluid support. |
INJECTED TWO PIECE STRAP | Designed to perfectly contour to your boot and provide long lasting support. |
MINIMALIST TOE STRAP | Designed to offer maximum performance and durability with minimum weight and distraction. |
LINKAGE RATCHET | Designed to improve ladder durability and eliminate ratchet wag, resulting in a smoother user experience with the same hold you expect. |
CANTED FOOTBED | An ultra-light 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. |
PLASTIC DISC | The plastic disc offers more lateral flex than aluminum for the rider that is focused on comfort and flex over hard charging performance |
