DRAKE binding used by top riders in all scenes such as powder, free riding, free style, gratri, and carving.
Its high quality and reliability, and a sense of stability that responds accurately to hard riding in any environment.Among the many binding brands, DRAKE is always simple and has a clear concept, making it easy to choose and use.Furthermore, it has the great appeal of always being at the forefront of the times in order to evolve with the development of NORTHWAVE boots.
Here, I would like to introduce the two models that I would like to pay attention to most from the attractive lineup.
First of all, many of the latest technologies have been introduced to the all-mountain & freestyle model SUPER SPORT, which is also used by international rider Kohei Kudo, and it has been significantly upgraded.The asymmetrical design of the highback, which uses carbon composite as the material, introduces an ergonomic shape and gives a more direct response while reducing weight.In addition, the Lightsaber base plate is also equipped with a 3D base pad that is more rigid than the previous model.The newly designed Grandmaster strap minimizes the gap between the boots.We have made thorough improvements, and have evolved into a model that conveys the rider's power directly to the board and leads to a higher level of riding world.
What I would like to pay more attention to is the adoption of the Eazy-Entry System.By attaching spring parts to the connector part of the ankle strap, the strap is kept in the open position, ensuring a sufficient opening when attaching the binding.Furthermore, by keeping the opening wide with the newly shaped ladder belt and toe strap, stress is overwhelmingly reduced and boots can be smoothly attached to the binding.It has also undergone a breakthrough improvement that frees you from the hassle of unfolding the straps to put your feet in.
On the other hand, the popular RELOAD is an ultra-lightweight toolless model that does not use screws or washers. In addition to the strongest combination of Lightsaber base plate and magnesium ratchet, this season's model has developed a Lil strap with a nylon frame coated with TPU.This strap increases the tightness of the boot and maximizes power transmission.At the same time, the response of toe and heel has been updated to a nice one.However, the side flex is soft and the matching with the high back is exquisite, and it accurately supports the action of performing tricks.Please check it out at the store or at the test drive event.

Easy-Entry System
Built-in spring at the base of the ankle strap.The Eazy-Entry System keeps a large opening when wearing boots due to the effect of the undulating toe and the rudder belt of the ankle.The boots are overwhelmingly easier to put on, reducing the stress on the rider.

If the opening of the ankle strap is so wide open, it's easy to put in boots.

Lil strap (RELOAD)

The new Lil strap has a special shape that sticks to the boot to maximize power transfer.Slim freestyle specifications, allowing smooth power transfer to the toe side while maintaining lateral freedom of tricks.

While improving the ease of movement in tricks, the shape that adheres to the boots ensures power transmission to the toe side.
