Burton Genesis EST Snowboard Bindings 2026 - Black
Get the most out of your ride with the perfect binding setup. The Burton Genesis EST Snowboard Bindings deliver the ideal balance of comfort, control, and response thanks to their medium-firm flex that bridges the gap between playful tweakability and confident, precise turns.
Designed for total customization, these bindings feature fully adjustable components—from the canted baseplate and highback to the flex slider straps so you can fine-tune your fit for all-day comfort.
Whether you’re lapping the park, carving groomers, or exploring sidecountry lines, the Burton Genesis EST Bindings are built to keep up with your every move. Strap in and ride your best.
Flex:
- Medium-Stiff Flex: Helps with quick, technical maneuvers, even at high speeds. Great for all-mountain carving, powerful freeriding and charging through the terrain park.
Baseplate:
- EST® Binding System: By removing the materials from beneath your feet and replacing them with cushioning, Burton is able to drastically reduce weight and explore entirely new designs. With EST®, the possibilities for flex is infinite, and so are the stance options.Single Component 30% Short-Glass / Nylon Composite Baseplate: More responsive yet playful. One material throughout creates consistent response and feel for all-terrain domination.
-
AutoCANT SensoryBED Cushioning System™ with B3 Gel: Dual-density EVA automatically settles your boot into a natural position regardless of stance, width or angles for improved comfort, reduced fatigue, and more direct board control.
- The Hinge™: Exclusive to EST® baseplates, this Burton-exclusive technology flexes dynamically with your leg for increased foot roll, less fatigue and easier ollies.
- 18% Short-Glass / Nylon Composite Spar: A high‑performance blend featuring ramped up strength in a soft‑flexing package.
- 30% Short-Glass / Nylon Composite Lower: Slightly more responsive than the 18% short‑glass/nylon composite, yet still plenty playful.
- B3 Gel: The same cushioning found in Burton's high-end boots for ultimate dampening that's formulated to withstand repeated impacts without breaking down or hardening up in cold temps.
Highback
- 18% Short-Glass / Nylon Composite: A high‑performance blend featuring ramped up strength in a soft‑flexing package.
- Zero-Lean Canted Hi-Back Design: Your legs don't go straight up, and neither should your hi-backs. This ergonomic design follows the natural contours of your left and right legs to maximize control and comfort. Riders who prefer a more playful and relaxed feel will dig the Zero Forward Lean design on select hi‑backs. As always, you can still choose to crank ‘em forward for quicker control when carving or climbing icy pipe walls.
- Kickback Hammock: A lighter weight upgrade to the heel hammock, this two-piece heel hugging hiback is literally suspension in a hiback. Dynamic interaction between an internal spring and rubber over molded hammock results in increased response and reduced vibration while your heel is cradled in complete suspension.
- MicroFLAD™: The higher the Forward Lean angle on your hi-backs, the quicker you heel-edge turns. Crank them forward for icy hits in the pipe or back them off for jibbing. Tool-free and micro-adjustable for easy fine-tuning and maximum angle options.
Straps
- Hammockstrap™: Reactstrap roots in a stitch‑less construction for ultra‑response with minimal materials. The addition of a nylon cross spine equals a more direct connection with the board.
- Supergrip Capstrap 2.0™: A minimalist, ultra-durable toe strap combining two advanced materials for lightweight support and superior comfort. Its 3D curved, triple-axis spine delivers a true wrap fit with a glue-less, stitch-less, and PU-free construction.
- Flex Slider: Makes strapping-in a breeze with a strategically stretched hinging zone that allows the heel strap to flex and fall fully open. Thanks to science of forced molecular alignment, the Flex Slider is also incredibly strong.
Buckles
- Double Take Buckles with Insta-Click: Be the first to drop in with the rapid ratcheting of Burton's Double Take Buckles. Helical teeth and "Insta-Click" engagement combine for increased torque per crank, faster uptake, and fewer cranks to tighten. The result: vastly improved strength, speed and ease of use.
