Yes, the Now Pilot Snowboard Binding will help you take flight and put down the landing gear, but if you plan on staying on the ground while you charge through the woods or on groomers you can also rely on this binding to perform. The technology is based around Now's revolutionary Skate-tech, which reduces contact between the binding and the board for a smoother ride. Less contact with the board creates a natural flex, reduces board chatter, and makes shredding a lot less work for you. Included with the Skate-tech equipped binding are bushings available in medium and hard that allow you to adjust the dampening and responsiveness based on whatever you're feeling. The medium-stiff flex makes this a perfect binding for sending it all around the mountain. A little bit of flex in the highback gives the Pilot ample versatility for just about any style of riding.
- Flex Rating – 6 – 7 (1 Soft – 10 Stiff)
- Baseplate Flushcup Technology – Designed to hold boots even without a highback, these have a flush inner surface where the highback meets the heelcup. This gives direct energy transfer between boot and binding.
- Hanger 2.0 Nylon Reinforced with 30% Glass Fiber – This baseless design allows for uninterrupted board flex, with rigid I-Beam wall sections that transfer energy to the board's edges.
- Post – Nylon with 50% Glass Fiber
- Combo Disc – 4×4 & Channel compatible
- Highback Flex Hinge 2.0 Highback – Pre-rotated 10 degrees, with a higher medial side to follow your leg angles, a lateral hook for added support, and a flex hinge that dampens chatter and eliminates calf-bite. 15mm Higher than the original Flex Hinge.
- Straps
- Freestyle Flipit Ankle Straps – Now has added two layers of EVA to this strap. It is cushy, yet supportive, and has traditional stitch-and-turn construction with an injected spine sandwiched between EVA and fabric.
- 3D Contour Toe Straps – If it's grip you're after, look no further. This strap is not only super grippy, but it is also moldable and can be used either on the tip or top of your boot.
- Hinge Connector – A minimalist but strong hinge design allows your straps to move out of the way, with a stop mechanism to prevent them flopping around.
- NOW Tool-less Adjuster Straps
- Buckles PA66-GF Buckle Levers – Made with the same high grade nylon and glass fiber blend found in Now posts and discs. This material is light and strong.
- Additional Features
- Skate Tech – Inspired by how easily and efficiently a skateboard turns, major components of Now's system mimic both the function and description of skateboard trucks. The Hanger powerfully transfers energy input from the straps to the bushings and onto the edges of your board. The Kingpin acts as a fulcrum, magnifying this energy through leverage. Traditional bindings diminish energy transfer by the flexing and bending of their baseplate, forcing you to crank your straps down harder, ride with more forward lean, or run taller and stiffer highbacks. This all leads to more foot fatigue and pain. NOW Bindings bypass the middle of the snowboard and direct your energy right onto the board's edges. They simply transfer more power to the board with less work, meaning your feet will stay more relaxed and comfortable, longer.
