Are you introducing any new innovations in buckles, straps, highbacks, baseplates, heel cups, etc..?
We’re thrilled to introduce the Talent Binding, our innovative new platform explicitly tailored for entry-level snowboarders. Built with the quality and versatility you’ve come to expect from our Nitro line, the Talent Binding boasts a wide array of features, including high-quality cable straps, 3D-molded toe and ankle straps, a Universal Mini Disc, and EVA dampening—all crafted to enhance your riding experience. With its adjustable aluminum heel cup, the Talent Binding offers extensive customization options. Riders can fine-tune the fit to suit their boots and unique riding style. Whether you’re a beginner looking to develop your skills or an intermediate rider seeking dependable support, the Talent Binding is designed to elevate every ride. We’re also excited to offer this platform for younger riders, with the CHARGER MINI and CHARGER MICRO delivering the same adjustability and performance for youth and kids.

Are you using any new materials in your bindings for 25/26?
We are continuously seeking new materials and updates for our bindings line. Our new STEP-ON binding will incorporate a dampening foam known as E-TPU, which perfectly absorbs and returns energy. Dampening is a key focus in our binding design, and we’re committed to finding new ways to enhance this feature. By making every ride more comfortable and reducing impact on the body, we aim to ensure riders experience the highest level of support and protection possible.

Any new design or pattern approaches in your 25/26 gear? Any collabs on the line?
We are proud to announce three exceptional collaborations in our lineup this season! When it comes to collabs, we are passionate about working with riders, individuals, and brands who share a deep, authentic connection to snowboarding. Each collaboration brings its unique flair with stunning graphics and highlights some of the sport’s most incredible riders, including Marcus Kleveland, Seth Huot, and Celia Petrig. These are collections you won’t want to miss!
