The Nitro Blackhawk Snowboard Binding offers precision response for high-octane riders who demand quick reaction times from their setup. The responsive FTI chassis and Premium Control Cut straps mean every ounce of energy you put into your bindings gets transferred to your board, while the multi-density EVA footbed padding means you won't shy away from hitting up the jump line in the afternoon.
The Blackhawk's reinforced nylon chassis utilizes multi-density EVA foam to take the edge off flat landings and absorb vibration to reduce fatigue. The Asym Type R highback is lightweight, stiff, and ergonomically designed for greater comfort and control. The profiled, asym ankle straps are oversized and packed with 3D foam padding to allow you to really crank down hard on your bindings without creating pressure points. The toe strap is a convertible model that can be worn over the toe or in front of the toe to pull your boot back into the binding's heelcup. The toe straps are also equipped with flex windows that give the strap a comfortable, natural flex and conform to the shape of the boot. The aluminum buckles work with the composite Speedwheel for years of smooth, slip-free use. Finally, Nitro's Ladder Speed Device aligns the strap for a fast, smooth, positive connection.
