Straps and Highbacks

To keep the weight down and maximise durability the toe strap features a no-nonsense minimalist design and wraps snuggly around your toes to keep them in place.

Similarly the ankle strap is quite simply made up of 2 components; a load bearing front piece to keep your foot locked in, while a small amount of additional padding is added behind to keep the fit snug and comfy.

Ride are well known for their love of urethane, and who can blame them. It helps to keep the damp, damp. So just like their patented Slimewalls the Slimeback highbacks are packed with urethane. The clever thing about their construction is that, as well as keeping the bindings damp, they have more flex laterally than vertically. This means you won’t lose any reactiveness in your pop, but have plenty of flex to tweak the day away.
