Product Details

Tour Mode

Dual Ride StrideSaving energy in the backcountry can be the difference between going for a second lap, going for a longer tour, or going home because you’re wiped out. All Karakoram splitboard bindings come standard with Dual Ride-Stride forward lean. With a -8° forward lean setting, Stride Mode allows you to stride and glide further with every step. Dual Ride modes allow you to effortlessly switch between railing carves and surfing turns. Drive Mode consists of a preset useradjustable forward lean (0°-22°), and surf mode can be activated without unstrapping (11° or 0°). Simply turn and go. Dual RideStride is the fastest and easiest forward lean adjustment available.

Smooth Touring PivotIndependent sleeves rotate freely on a fixed thru-axle, similar to a bike axle, making these stiff and smooth. They're wide for touring rigidity, they shed snow well, and the quick-releasing bracket allows for simple transitions.

Dual Speed Riser with Heel Lock Pole Basket FlipFlip up/down with pole basket on the fly. Retractable Heel-Lock included.

Heel LockOn-the-fly heel lock down Release load equivalent to DIN 6 Heel-Lock folds out of way when not needed

Ride Mode

Dual Ride 2.0Active Joining pulls your splitboard together and keeps your feet spring-loaded to the board, giving you direct power transfer to the edge and instant response in a way that passive, slide fit splitboard systems cannot.

Active JoiningNo slop with instant response. Pre-loaded contact points create an ultra solid connection between your bindings and splitboard.

Interlocking Seam TabsNo separation: tabs interlock across the seam of your board, interlocking and pre-loading the two halves for a solid ride.

Snow Ejection ChannelsMade from a carbon infused nylon, the Ride Mode 2.0 is designed to reduce snow build up and clear snow easily.

Baseplate

7075-T6 Open ChassisCNC’d completely from 7000 series space grade aluminum, the open chassis allows your bindings to twist naturally with your board. Say no to dead spots under your feet.

Nomad X Type Heelcup2X stronger than standard aluminum. CNC core outs maximize the strength-to-weight ratio. The high sidewall supports boot for better power transfer and grip while side hilling.

Drop-On Change OversActive joining allows for a loose fit then closing the lever LOCKS your binding to board, removing all play from the system.

Flex (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)6

Straps

Air-Pod StrapsMade from P-Lite TPE, which is 30% lighter than standard TPU. These lightweight straps feature Independent Pressure Pods that articulate to eliminate pressure points.

Buckles

Carbon BucklesMade from recycled carbon fiber tow, these buckles are not just strong and light they use carbon fiber that is destine for landfills.

Highback

C4 Carbon HighbackReducing weight while adding a little stiffness to a trusty Reactive Highback contour. Made from Karakoram’s proprietary Carbon Nyolite.
