There have been two main design goals with the KISS binding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first, to simplify the steps at changeover. The entire binding remains on the board at all times. No pulling parts off to put into your pack. No leaving them behind. No dealing with snow and ice. Rip the skins off, click the two sides together at the top, and you're done. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe second goal, was to eliminate the \"robotic\" feel of hard boots. Anyone using ski Tech Boots knows the significant advantages in the climbs, where we spend 90% of our day, but most would agree that they're \"not quite as good\" as soft boots riding down. It's a worthwhile trade off we all make. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo this end, the binding bails are made with Dynema (replacing the stainless bails). DM20 Dynema (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.soulwaterman.com\/pages\/dynema-vs-steel\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eproperties\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.soulwaterman.com%20%E2%80%BA%20pages%20%E2%80%BA%20dynema-vs-steel\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e) has a break strength almost double that of steel, and a stretch ratio of almost half. The laterally flexible nature of the Dynema allows the boot to rock on the canted and curved surface of the binding, emulating the feel of a soft boot, removing that robotic lateral feel. \u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe pucks have 3° of canting AND the top surface is curved to enhance lateral boot roll.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe amount of boot roll can be regulated by moving the bail guides towards the board centre for more lateral roll, and towards the outer edge for less lateral roll. You can increase roll between your feet by moving the outer guides inwards and reduce roll towards the ends by moving the inner guides out. The locking cam tucks under a bungee for the climb. You secure the Dynema by pinching it with set screws in a zig-zag shape within the binding guides. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe binding overlaps the centreline of the board preventing any lateral scissoring, while the three supplied (one attaches to the heel riser inserts between the feet) prevent the two sides from opening. You won't see any difference in board stability between our binding system, and other traditional HB systems, regardless of whether it’s a Soul board or any other Splitboard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePATENT PENDING*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #808080;\"\u003eIncluded with the Binding:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #808080;\"\u003e4 Base plates including the bail guides with mounting hardware. 4 Dynema Bails. 2 boot locking cams. 2 cam-lock splitlocks and 1 heel riser pattern cam-lock splitlock, with all hardware. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #808080;\"\u003eDynema Binding weight is 310g per full binding (per ski).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #808080;\"\u003eIt is highly recommended to use a short heel riser design that does not excessively overlap the heel split clip.
