2023 Jones Meteorite Surf Series Snowboard Bindings

The Jones Meteorite Surf Series Snowboard Bindings is a moderate to soft flex binding that takes its cue from the surf and skate industry. Pop it into Surf mode by positioning the ankle strap below the buckle for solid heel support but more ankle flexibility for getting loose and playful for soft snow and powder or park riding. With a 5 out of 10 flex, you get just the right amount of stiffness for playful park riding and all-mountain shedding. And with Skate tech, the components of this design mimic the function of a skateboard truck. The “Hanger” acts as a lever that transfers energy input from the straps to the “Bushings” and onto the board edges. The “Kingpin” acts as the fulcrum for the “Hanger” and magnifies the energy transfer through leverage. Traditional bindings lose energy when the baseplate flexes and bends unevenly. The energy loss forces you to crank your straps tighter and ride with more forward lean to gain the same control. Uneven pressure and tight straps lead to more foot fatigue and pain. By evenly pivoting over the “Post”, the middle of your board flexes more uniformly and your energy inputs are focused directly on your edge. Your feet stay more relaxed and more comfortable because the bindings transfer power to the board with less work. Intermediate to advanced riders will simply gravitate towards the Jones Meteorite Surf Series Snowboard Bindings.
