Salomon Snowboards SP3 Snowboard Binding:
Salomon's SP3 snowboard binding has always been a top pick among budget-minded freeriders and freestylers, but some folks questioned the balance between performance and price. There's a misconception that you have to pay more to play well, and that certainly isn't the case with the SP3--especially after Salomon's recent design upgrades. This lively and comfortable snowboard binding now has a taller FWL extender highback and a new rigid 45% fiberglass baseplate that helps optimize energy transmission between your snowboard boot and your snowboard. Ratcheting Alium metal buckles enhance the fit versatility without bogging you down with a bunch of excess weight. A new 3D strap design with EVA padding wrap added support around your ankle area to help lock your boot into the binding without cranking up any painful pressure points. Whether it's the park or the pipe, the SP3 is the right choice any day of the season.
