    This is gold!
    Worked as an instructor and in an shop. My highback is always parallel, gas pedal out (EU size: 45/46, US 11?) and forward lean max. It gives you so much edge control. (Freeride/all mountain, I'm not a park guy)

    @ 3:11-great, underemphasized tip! I'd say 80% of riders do not make this adjustment. Makes a noticeable difference in heelside edge engagement. Align your highbacks parallel with the heelside edge! Awesome! 🤙🏂

    • @pnclab
      @pnclab 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      After this alignment, your bindings probably will refuse to fully close highbacks when you pack your board into the bag for transportation. Some scratches may occur. However, don't worry abt it. Bindings are really tough enough!

    Nice video! Here's another binding tip: When entering a chairlift (with your back foot unstrapped), kick down your highback. If there's a lot of snow, the entry platform could be so high that the chair can catch (and break) your highback. I've seen this happen a lot, since I worked in a snowboard rental for many years.
    What I also see a lot, is people with Flow bindings getting stuck behind the gate pole, because their highback is sticking out at their backside. Don't ride Flow or anything like that. You look like a noob and you fail even before you enter the lift. Still stays funny though.

    When running Union's Camber Disc to give you more stance width adjustability (slots running nose-to-tail), you can sometimes have multiple insert holes to choose from depending on where you mount the binding. If the board's insert holes are lined up in the center of the disc slots, fine. You use those. But if you slide the binding over far enough (every 1cm increment), you can have like 4 different combinations of holes to choose from. Which ones should you use? Or does it not matter?

    • @SearchofSnowboarding

      @@SearchofSnowboarding Maybe there's something getting lost in translation here. That's not what I'm asking. Let say you adjust each binding out toward the the tip and tail equally, 1cm each. That means you have the option of mounting them with the camber disk using 4x4, 4x2, or 4x6 pattern because of where the disk lines up with the board's insert pack. For reference, pause your video at 5:14.

    Random video that popped in my feed figured id give it a watch. I actually ride old bindings. Nearly antiques hahahah. I got 2 sets of forum ATA and one ser of ATP bindings. Early 2000s. Ive actually been considering changing it up a bit and pulling my heel back. I keep my toes a lil further out because of the natural curve of the toe that points upwards vs the lower part of the heel is more likely to drag. I have zero issues with heel/toe drag just had been curious to maybe give it a shot as technically id be more centered boot wise. Plus when i skate i ride with my heels sticking out more so there may be something there... who knows 😂
    Ive never heard of anyone adjusting their highbacks perpendicular to the heel edge like that. That is interesting. I dont understand what the advantages would nessisarily be except maybe applying more pressure from inwards-out. Im not positive if my angle is enough vs. The adjustment range i have built into the bindings to actually try that. I usually ride 12° -12°. Its been awhile since ive taken em apart. I may tinker soon tho 😂😂😂
    Its actually quite amazing how well those bindings have held up. My ATP had gotten so much use. Mostly in the park back in the day. I dont really have any interest in getting anything new with new "fancy" tech though id love to mess with canting adjustments. Anyhoo, figured id give ya some feedback 🤙

Still do have that mindset but it's more casual now I suppose Not looking to break myself trying something insane anymore hahaha. I should give em a try you're right but I enjoy the ones I have because you're literally as close to the board as possible. Can't really put into words easily but I like the ides of more board feel and not being "boosted" up from a thicker baseplate. Mine are very thin with a thin layer of rubber samiched between board and baseplate. I also got a few "tricks" I do with them to manipulate for my style of riding at that moment which I likely could do with others too I suppose.
      I was able to adjust the highbacks parallel to edge well! I haven't tried it that way yet but will soon!! I'm hopeful that it'll allow me to get a better and closer to center backside grab!

    What about heavily rotated highbacks?
    I ride 30-36° I the front, 0-+9° in the back and, obviously, have the front highback maxed out to the side. I need to set the lean angles highly asymmetric for it to feel somewhat symmetric - which seems to vary quite a bit with my position on the board though.
    I guess it's usually somewhere around 1° front to already feel the highback quite a bit and between 3 - 4 or 5 in the back to feel symmetrical.
    Should I try out a very wrong feeling but actually symmetric lean angle set up with my asymmetric binding angles?
    Any thoughts on that, might there be something specific to gain from it?

  • @KirillKonshin
    @KirillKonshin 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The only problem with forward lean is that if you have some space inside the boot (between liner and outer shell, or between liner and shins), with forward lean you will have to bend knees significantly more on toe side to go through the slack first and then to apply necessary pressure. This may result in foot pain. Some liners and boots are designed in a weird way that there's always a gap no matter how much you tighten the boot. With forward lean high back pushes the back of the boot and squishes it, so the gap between the shin/liner/boot can increase.
    Forward lean also forces to bend knees more when it's not really needed (on a catwalk or when you're going straight on the flat). Instead of just cruising and conserving energy for good stuff you'll have to work a lot ;)
    Forward lean is a great to practice heelside carves or heelside in general. Just don't do too much :)

    The less bindings I used from the rental shop did not have this adjustment and I’m wondering if it might’ve messed me up a little bit?

    Any recommendations for binding adjustments for riding pow? I'm just getting into splitboarding and feeling a little lost! Cheers!

      I've found it can feel weird if you make a big change with your angles different from what you're used to. But it's nice to have a little more angle on your front foot, little less on the back when riding pow. Don't know if you've seen this yet, but might help you out for splitboarding th-cam.com/video/X7jPRcPbOJQ/w-d-xo.html

    What is best? Well that depends, on your riding style, you choice of booth, you binding angles, your perferation. I mean, FL is good for certain stuff, but for others, like rails, can be killing.

    • @SearchofSnowboarding
      @SearchofSnowboarding  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yup all preference. I actually ride with a decent amount on rails myself

    Sucks that the Burton step ins dont have as much adjustability.

    • @SearchofSnowboarding
      @SearchofSnowboarding  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      They’re not really. The high backs are designed for the best energy transfer/anatomically more correct so you don’t need to rotate them. And I didn’t mention it in this video but you can adjust the forward lean with them too

    If you have bad ankles do you recommend doing forward lean or no?

    • @SearchofSnowboarding
      @SearchofSnowboarding  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I had a few ankle surgeries back to back winters and forward lean has never made a difference with those injuries, so I'd say no, but everyone is different

    Make your highback angles parallel with your edge. Adjust your gas pedal...

  • @dominickm5018

    Crazy thing bent metal bindings still can’t adjust the high back to be parallel to the edge

      You should be able to make all these adjustments with Rome also

    The forward lean thing is hilarious…I understand it for boarder cross..Remember Longo talking about getting shit for not using when he was on the French Olympic team. And no…pros can’t ride anything, they just work and train harder than us.

    Forward lean is cool if you don’t know how to bend your knees and or properly carve heelside.

  • @loveshredding

    My Nidecker Supermatics are fantastic, but the one thing that annoys me to no end is the high back, which can only be adjusted via a screw you have to loosen. So dumb.

  • @hoexskip
    @hoexskip 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    How important is it to get a binding with adjustable heel cups or footbeds? I bought bindings that don’t have either of those features. If it’s not super important, I’m wondering how much binding overhang is ok for riding?

    • @SearchofSnowboarding
      @SearchofSnowboarding  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Having a binding with these adjustments gives you more leeway for making it fit perfect with your boots. You just want a minimal amount of hang.
