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 Twin

Tapered UnderBite – Each side of the board’s effective edge is segmented into 3 distinct parts that step horizontally inward rather than tapering. Traditional “tapered boards” take the full sidecut and pull the tail inward, which is away from the arc of your turn – this is why they tend to wash out under hard carving. Tapered UnderBite corrects this by increasing the sidecut depth as you move towards the tail creating a corrective “hook” to the taper. The board blends into turns effortlessly, and has the directional drive and float you’d expect from a tapered board.

Triaxal Glass

Sintered Spec – The raw material is pre-consumer recycled (meaning it never left the factory) sintered base material. The heating and extrusion process softens it slightly, but it's still much harder than true Extruded.

Additional Slamback Inserts

2 x 4 Inserts

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)
