Why We Like The Hemlock Snowboard Binding

Ready for afternoon park laps, late-night urban sessions, and all-terrain assaults at the resort, the Hemlock Snowboard Binding is Arbor's freestyle-oriented offering. It combines a softer-flexing highback with a responsive baseplate to give us a ride that can get loose on jibs, spin-off jumps, and carve at high speeds. Its asymmetrical highback offers an ergonomic feel for better control and comfort, and its softer flex lets us tweak grabs and play around in the park. The X-Drive baseplate enhances performance by efficiently transferring energy, responding quickly, and keeping us in total control.
