Freedom Snowboard Binding - 2025

Hyper Cored Aluminum is a lightweight yet strong material used in the baseplate of the Gnu Freedom Snowboard Binding. Its design reduces weight while maintaining structural integrity, which enhances performance by providing a solid foundation. This means you can enjoy better control and responsiveness on the slopes without feeling weighed down.

The EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) footbed is designed to provide excellent cushioning and shock absorption. This means that when you land jumps or ride on rough terrain, the EVA material helps to reduce the impact on your feet and legs, making your ride more comfortable and minimizing the risk of injuries.

A reclining highback is a feature that allows the vertical part of the binding, which supports your calf, to tilt back. This design makes it easier to step in and out of the binding without having to adjust the straps each time. It’s particularly beneficial for quick transitions, such as when getting on and off the lift, allowing you to spend more time riding and less time fussing with your gear.

The auto-open ankle strap automatically opens when you step into the binding, making it incredibly easy and fast to get in and out. This feature is especially convenient for riders who are in a hurry or dealing with cold weather, as it eliminates the need to manually adjust the strap, allowing for a smoother and quicker setup.

The heel shock pod is a specialized cushioning system designed to absorb and dampen impacts in the heel area during hard landings. This feature helps to reduce stress on your feet and legs, resulting in a smoother and more comfortable riding experience. It’s particularly beneficial for those who enjoy jumping or riding on challenging terrain.

The combination of Hyper Cored Aluminum for strength and lightweight performance, EVA footbed for cushioning, reclining highback for easy entry and exit, auto-open ankle strap for convenience, and heel shock pod for impact absorption creates a binding that enhances your overall snowboarding experience. Together, these features provide better control, comfort, and efficiency, allowing you to focus on enjoying your time on the slopes.
