Why We Like The Burton Cartel X EST Snowboard Binding

The high-end Cartel X EST Snowboard Binding is packed with tech, making it a top choice. These legendary bindings from Burton are known for their versatility, comfort, and lightweight design, all while providing a stiff flex. The high-back features the Heel Hammock, which offers support, boot grip, and extra response for impressive carves. The HammockStrap up front keeps the boot securely in place without sacrificing flexibility on deep turns. The dual-component baseplate and plush cushioning underfoot ensure precise control and a smooth ride. Plus, with Burton's EST system, these bindings are compatible with their snowboards' Channel mounting system, providing exceptional precision and connection.
