Dustin Craven's standards are a bit higher than most: when you're at the forefront of riding insane backcountry lines that tends to happen. The Yes. Standard UnInc Snowboard is a pumped up version of the fantastic Standard, with a little more support and precision to deal with those no-fall situations. This is a mid-wide board that shows none of the sluggishness that can sometimes come with that extra width through the middle. This Standard is as quick and solid as can be – just watch Craven ride it for proof!
Camber – Camber is the base of snowboarding: you need to have enough edgehold to drive in and out of turns. The camber does exactly that, allowing you to drive your turns longer and release later.
Flex Rating – 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Directional Volume Twin – Featuring a wide platform underfoot where you need it
MidBite – MidBite blends the response of a narrow waist width with the stability of a wider nose & tail.
Poplar / Paulownia / Bamboo – Creates a lighter, more responsive core than the Full Poplar. The Poplar + Bamboo uses the same durable core, lightens it up by replacing 30% of the Poplar with Paulownia and then inserts two bamboo stringers down the full length for added pop and response.
Triax + Carbon
Slamback Inserts
Sintered True – True Sintered bases are harder and more expensive than extruded, and can be faster for those that ride aggressively.

Freestyle, fearless, and full of fun, the Now Select Snowboard Bindings will have you lapping the park for hours thanks to their comfortable chassis and versatile flex. Featuring a minimal and damp freestyle highback and SkateTech for comfort and power transfer, the Select are the obvious choice for trying new features or hitting your favorite rail.
Flex Rating – 6 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
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 is Nylon with 30% Glass Fiber – I-Beam wall sections are both rigid and light. Baseless design allows for uninterpreted board flex. Transfers energy to the board’s edges
Canted 2.0 Footpillow
Post – Nylon with 50% Carbon Fiber
Freestyle Highback – Symmetrical geometry, minimal top curve for extra mobility, hidden flex hinge at the top 1/3, and Top Flair, which dampens chatter and eliminates calf-bite
Flex Rating – 6
Asym S-Sense Strap – The minimalist approach of the ASYM S-SENSE strap is everything you want in a strap and nothing you don’t. Thanks to the very light single-piece-injected construction, it contours every type of boot without inducing any pressure points, and it has just the right flex.
3D Contour Toe Strap – If you just can’t get enough grip, then the 3D Contour Toe Strap is what will make the cut. This strap is not only super grippy but also moldable, and can be used on either the tip or top of your boot.
NOW Tool-less Adjuster Straps
Ankle 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.
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.
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.
Highcup Compatibility – Compatible with all NOW hangers. Low profile for extra flexibility. Street, park and pow.
Combo Mounting Disc 4x4 - Channel – Mounting disc is Nylon reinforced. 4x4 and Channel compatibility. Minimal board fixture. Light and strong
Bushings – Available in Medium (45 Shore)
