“I didn’t even know I was wearing bindings while riding the Smiths. They’re so light and comfortable, yet supportive and durable that I really did feel like my feet were attached to the board by some kind of supernatural power (or maybe just by magic straps).

“The loose, surfy feel also allowed me to make the most of the slush and I feel this would be mirrored in heavy duty backcountry conditions”

I tested these bindings in slushy spring conditions paired with the Bataleon Push Up board, which made the perfect combo. While jibbing and surfing the pistes, I could easily achieve the desired amount of pop from this setup all the way down the mountain without losing any energy, which I feel was due to the perfect flex of the bindings.

The loose, surfy feel also allowed me to make the most of the slush and I feel this would be mirrored in heavy duty backcountry conditions, if given the opportunity. If you’re looking for supremely comfortable bindings that will still allow you to take full advantage of any conditions and make the most of the board you’re riding then the Smiths are the bindings for you.”
