Now O-Drive 2023 – Men’s Snowboard Bindings

Flex Rating – 9-10/10 (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 3.0 Nylon Reinforced with 30% Glass Fiber – The new Hanger H3 features a wider bushing footprint that is closer to the board’s edges for enhanced board connection and faster energy transfer. The H3 also encompasses a reduction in weight, a dropped-down inner lateral wall for better ankle mobility, and is able to accommodate bigger volume boots. To top it off, it also has a new kingpin tool-less 2.0 that is more integrated and user friendly.

Kingpin Tool-less 2.0 – No tool required – switching from your park to pow board with one set of bindings or changing your bushings on the fly has never been faster or easier.

Post – Nylon with 30% Carbon Fiber

Combo Disc – 4×4 & Channel compatible

FS2 Carbon Highback with 3K Carbon Fiber – Pre-rotated 5 degrees with an asymmetrical shape to follow leg angles and a multi-position forward lean block with Alien key hardware. 20mm higher than the Freewing highback.

Hyperfuse II Straps – An evolution and a design refinement over the original Hyperfuse strap. Inspired by shoe construction, the Hyperfuse II is a stitchless, spineless strap. Its inner guts are constructed with nylon webbing that is strong, durable and flexible, and a sandwiched between two layers of EVA. The end product is a comfortable and lightweight binding strap that will not only handle the elements, but the test of time.

3D Pro-Grip Toe Strap – Non-slip and solid grip is what you’ll have with Now’s 3D Pro-Grip Toe Strap. It’s super grippy, moldable, and can be used on the tip or toe 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

PA66-C Buckle Levers – Made from the same high grade composite blend found in the O-Drive hanger. This material is extremely light and strong, reducing overall buckle weight by 20%.

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.

Bushings – Available in Medium (45 Shore) and Hard (55 Shore)
