Burton Cartel EST (2020)

The first choice of the pros for maximum responsiveness and versatility

For riders who want to send it. Kicked up response from bindings ripped by the pros. The Burton Cartel is one of those bindings that pushes binding progression to push rider progression. It’s one of the team’s favourites because it can take on the whole mountain with the response advanced riders are looking for. Drop steep faces, take high-speed park laps, and carve up some fresh groomers, the Cartel snowboard bindings will not disappoint you.

Highback  The simplicity of a one-piece hi-back means immediate response. The ergonomic Canted Hi-Back design follows the natural contours of your left and right legs to maximise control and comfort. Living Hinge™ technology eliminates hardware and weight and allows you to adjust your Forward Lean and hi-back rotation independently. The higher the Forward Lean angle on your highback, the quicker your heel-edge turns. Crank ’em forward for icy hits in the pipe, or back ’em off for jibbing. For mind-blowing micro-adjustability, the DialFLAD™ system gives you all the freedom.

Baseplate By removing the materials from beneath your feet and replacing them with cushioning, bindings with EST® Baseplate Construction drastically reduce weight. With EST®, the possibilities for flex and feel are infinite, and so are the stance options. Get it all without ever sacrificing the edge-to-edge power you know and trust. For the Dual-Component Baseplate Construction the material underfoot is softer than the material alongside the lateral edges. This creates a ride that is softer underfoot, yet stiffer edge to edge for a perfect balance of response and board feel. 30% Short-Glass / Nylon Composite Spar is a high-performance blend featuring ramped up strength in a soft-flexing package, 5% Short-Glass / Nylon Composite Lower is slightly more responsive, yet still plenty playful. **The Hinge **is a Burton-exclusive technology flexes dynamically with your leg for increased foot roll, less fatigue, and easier ollies. At the AutoCANT SensoryBED™ Cushioning System, dual-density EVA automatically settles your boot into a natural position regardless of stance width or angles for improved comfort, reduced fatigue, and more direct board control. B3 Gel stands for ultimate dampening that’s formulated to withstand repeated impacts without breaking down or hardening up in cold temps.

Straps The** Hammockstrap™ 2.0** has everything our team riders love about the Hammockstrap, but paired with Smooth Glide™ buckles for a reduced profile and more comfortable fit. The stitchless, minimized injected design, ultra‑responsive 3D® curved Straps with ultra‑light engineered padding remains soft in cold temperatures. The Supergrip Capstrap™ 2.0 with its minimalist design merges two materials into one technologically advanced toe strap. A firmer material in the spine provides a supportive and lightweight skeleton, while a softer over-moulded material improves boot wrap and comfort.
