The Genesis is a high end binding, there’s no getting away from that pricetag. However, when we start to look at the binding you are getting, it’s clear to see where the money goes. Incredible lightness & supreme comfort is the fruit of Burton’s labour on these. Buckles, straps, highbacks & Heelcups have all been designed to within an inch of their existence to create the ultimate, lightweight, comfortable binding.

Features: Base/ Heelcups 30% Short Glass/ Nylon Composite has a slightly more forgiving flex than some of Burton’s stiffer baseplate materials, making it ideal for all day riding, particularly for lighter/laid back riders. Stiff enough for dropping into couloirs, soft enough for sliding rails. 18% Short Glass/ Nylon Composite has a more forgiving flex than some of Burton’s stiffer baseplate & highback materials, making it ideal for all day riding, particularly for lighter/laid back riders. Sliding rails, general jibbing & fluid riding is the order of the day with these bindings. Loose, never felt so controlled The Hinge is a design exclusive to Burton EST bindings.

Lightweight Gettagrip Capstraps are super lightweight EVA toe straps, with 3D shaping for the ultimate fit. They can be used as Cap straps or Toe Straps (does anyone still ride like that?). Burton Cap Straps are some of the most universally compatible shapes, & fit perfectly over almost every boot on the market.

It also makes for easier entry as the diagonal structure of the ladder encourages the ladder to be ‘sucked in’ to the buckle. Highback: Kickback Hammock highbacks feature a secondary, sprung highback piece. This allows the inner, flexible ‘hammock’ to cradle the re
