Freedback Hammock - 2025

No-backs provide enhanced freedom of movement compared to traditional bindings. This allows riders to shift their weight more easily and maneuver their boards with greater agility, similar to the experience of skateboarding. This is especially beneficial for freestyle riders who want to perform tricks and navigate terrain with fluidity.

The Freedback model is designed to enhance feedback and responsiveness between the rider and the snowboard. This means you'll feel more connected to your board, allowing for better control and precision during turns and tricks. Riders can expect a more dynamic experience, especially in varied terrain.

The heel hoop provides crucial support and stability at the heel of your foot. An elevated heel hoop helps lock your foot in place, improving edge control while still allowing the freedom of movement that no-backs offer. This combination is essential for maintaining balance and control during aggressive riding.

Edge-to-edge response refers to how quickly and effectively your snowboard can transition from one edge to another. A binding with excellent edge-to-edge response allows for quick turns and better maneuverability, which is vital for technical riding, park features, and navigating challenging snow conditions.

Stomping power is the ability of your bindings to absorb impact and provide stability when landing jumps or tricks. Bindings with strong stomping power help you land safely and maintain control after aerial maneuvers, making them essential for riders who enjoy performing jumps and tricks in the park or off natural features.

While no-backs are particularly popular among freestyle and park riders due to their flexibility and maneuverability, they can also be used for all-mountain riding. However, if you frequently ride in challenging conditions or prefer a more supportive feel, you may want to consider traditional bindings for those situations.
