Switchback Baseplate 12/13

Product Description

Switchback is the new binding brand from the creative genius's at Bataleon.

Not ones to follow convention they have totally revolutionised the way you buy bindings & thanks to some great innovations the way you use bindings. Designed to offer total flexibility to the rider the Switchback binding quickly switches between a traditional highback binding for those days when you want a responsive & dynamic ride & a highback free binding for the ones where you want a looser & more surf inspired ride. Now being able to remove your highback might not sound revolutionary but it's the way you do it that has received all the plaudits. Simply pop the highback out of the Baseplate by compressing its sides & then push it down, all you need to do then is pop in the insert to fill the gap left by the highback. All tool free & done in a matter of seconds.

Now it's not just the ride that you can customise with the Switchback binding, it's also the way it looks. Once again bringing a revolution to the binding market Switchback is bought by selecting each element of the binding separately in a multitude of colour ways. These separate elements all then clip together with an innovative tool free assembly to create a unique & individual set of bindings. The Highback is available in standard or forward Lean (FL) versions.

So let's start the process of putting together a set of bindings. It's all pretty simple stuff & goes together tool free in under a minute allowing you to create one of over 3000 unique colourways.

Switchback isn't just a fashion statement though, underneath all that innovation beats the heart of a high performance binding, you don't get the likes of Halldor & Eiki Helgason, Ethan Morgan, Ryan Paul & the legendary Kevin Sansalone on board if you're all show & no go.

* FL Binding features adjustable forward lean.
