Expert Review
My preferred splitboard binding. I switched to Karakoram 4 years ago and I love these bindings. They have some cool features and fit on the board a lot smoother and better than other brands. I also like that these bindings still feel like real snowboard bindings and it feels like I'm on a resort board on my regular bindings. These are also really lightweight and smooth for transitions. Try em out!
