1. Hanger 2.0 & 3.0:
Hanger pivots on the kingpin like a lever, allowing lightning fast edge-to-edge energy transfer. True baseless design that delivers the most even board flex of any binding on the market.

2. Kingpin:
The kingpin is the fulcrum that the hanger pivots on. Design magnifies energy transfer and enhances board response through leverage,

3. Post:
The post attaches the hanger to the kingpin and is the connection between binding and board.

4. Bushings:
Bushings are the primary binding contact point and offer customizable response and dampening (Surf mode vs Freeride mode).

Freeride mode:
Position the wide half of the strap above the buckle for more lateral support and board response. Use Hard Bushings for maximum board response.

Surf mode:
Position the wide half of the strap below the buckle for solid heel support but more ankle flexibility for getting loose. Use Soft Bushings for a looser, more dynamic feel.
