This Fastec snowboard binding starts the Gnu lineup, which uses the S-lab base. Aircraft-grade aluminum is a light, strong and rigid material, serving as the basis for the most important part of the mount-base. It gives you the ultimate in responsiveness and precise control combined with reliability and lightness. Gnu engineers minimized vibration and shock after landings by coating the base and highback with special Eva foam. Whether you're surfing in powder or taking off from snowboard park kickers, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the top straps with their high support and quality of pressure distribution. For 2013, the Gnu Psych bindings feature an all-new front strap that not only locks the boot in place, but distributes pressure better. However, the main feature of the Gnu bindings is still the Fastec quick release and fastening system. It will securely fix the boot in the mount. Plus, you don't have to fasten your ratchets and sit down in the snow, which means that your hands will remain warm and your pants will not get wet.
