Jones Orion Men White Glacier Frost 25/26 Snowboard Bindings

Jones Orion Men White Glacier Frost 25/26 Snowboard Bindings are created for intermediate riders who want power and instant responsiveness, comfortable and durable, with a medium-soft flex that is freestyle-friendly. Orion features SKATETECH technology that transfers energy directly to the edge and a Progressive Flex Highback that is stiffer at the bottom and softer at the top for a precise, playful hold.

Main features - 
1. Medium flexibility for playful, precise control
2. SKATE TECH for supreme energy transfer
3. Highback rigid at the base
4. Change bushings + straps to customize response - Surf vs. Freeride mode



SKATE TECH 

• The NOW Skate Tech system works on the skateboard principle and improves board control 

• Reduces foot fatigue by transferring energy directly from the binding to the board's edges through a dynamic design.

• Bushings are the binding's main contact point and offer customizable response and damping (Surf Mode and Freeride Mode).

1.  Unmatched turning power
 When making a powerful heelside or toeside turn, the force you apply to the straps and highback is transferred directly to the edge through the skatetech setup. By using this system's mechanical advantage, SkateTech bindings are the most responsive bindings in the world. 

2.  No comparison with traditional bindings
 Power is transmitted through the central disc.
When making a powerful heelside or toeside turn with traditional bindings, the pressure you apply to the straps goes into the fixed central disc and forces the binding baseplate to bend before power is transmitted to the edges. Energy is concentrated in the center of the traditional rigid baseplate, reducing potential turning power compared with SkateTech bindings.

BASEPLATE-

1. Comfort Foam foot pillow - Full-length EVA foam footbed that maximizes binding comfort while minimizing foot fatigue. 
2. NEW universal mounting disc - All Jones bindings include a mounting disc compatible with traditional 4x4 and 2x4 inserts and the EST/Channel mounting system.
3. This binding is equipped with Hard Bushings (Freeride Mode) for maximum board response.

STRAPS - 

1. Asym buckles -Bombproof buckles made from aircraft-grade alloy, with ultra-strong levers and springs. The triple-action ratchet design increases entry and release speed.
2. 3D Flex Fit 2.0 toe straps - 3D Flex Fit 2.0 toe straps stretch dynamically to fit any boot shape. The new minimalist design is even lower-profile and just as comfortable, durable and responsive as the original design.
3. Comfort Flex ankle straps - Comfort Flex ankle straps are 3D-molded to distribute pressure evenly and eliminate strap bite, and are also asymmetrical for a customizable response. Compatible with Flip-It Strap (Freeride mode + Surf mode).


HIGHBACK -
1. Designed for precise, playful response. Symmetric mid-wide profile and medium flex for carving, tweaking airs and switch riding.
2. Dual-density design that becomes progressively softer from bottom to top.
3. Stiff lower section for solid carving performance
4. Flexible upper section for lively freestyle performance
5. Tool-free forward lean adjustment
