Bent Metal Axtion Forest Bailey Men’s Snowboard Bindings 2023

The binding of choice for Forest Bailey, the AXTION is a freestyle focussed all-terrain binding that’s happy in any terrain or conditions. Built around Bent Metal’s responsive Uni-Body chassis, it features the more powerful Magnesium Fibre Drive Plate. This interchangeable foot plate stiffens up the overall flex of the binding, ensuring that it reacts to even the slightest input delivering a level of control and response that can satisfy even the most demanding rider. The Axtion’s performance theme is carried through to the responsive Performance Polymer highback and Dual-Band Ankle strap. The advanced highback features an asymmetric shape which wraps around the calf to increase drive through the highback. The state-of-the-art straps feature dual-band reinforcing to increase response, but with a softer main strap to increase lateral movement for a freestyle-friendly feel with increased comfort. Add a super comfy Grip Form toe strap, and you’re looking at top to bottom performance, comfort and reliability all day long.

BENT METAL TRANSFER TECHNOLOGY

Uni-Body Chassis:

The one-piece polymer Uni-Body chassis has been designed to deliver the perfect balance of rider-friendly feel, response, and control. Its excellent shock-absorbing characteristics help reduce foot pain and ensure the perfect balance of performance and all-day riding comfort. Toe/Heel centring is achieved via the mounting disk.

Magnesium Fibre Flex Control Drive Plate:

Bent Metals advanced Flex Control Drive Plates allow the designers to create the optimum performance for every binding in the range. This unique design laminates the footbed similarly to how you lay up a snowboard. By utilising multiple layers, Bent Metal can not only control how much dampening the footbed delivers, but they can also precisely control the binding flex. The Magnesium Fibre, UHMW Core and Eco-Sublimated top sheet material create a medium flex Drive Plate, which gives excellent performance and control across a broad range of conditions and terrain.

Power Ankle Strap:

The unique Dual Band ankle strap design uses a firm central “Power Band” to transmit rider input to the board. At the same time, a larger and softer “Flex Band” enables the boot to articulate for a more extensive range of expression and increased comfort. The overlapping materials create transition zones and fuse to form a uniquely tuned response and comfort level not achieved in a single material strap. Two bands with different Flex and Power properties fuse for maximum comfort and tuned response. Individually shaped Power Bands tune response to excel during different riding conditions and styles

Performance Polymer Highback:

The Axtion’s slightly cupped and slightly asymmetric shape compensates for the increased rigidity of the medium-firm stiffness highback material to give a smoother and more compliant ride without compromising performance. Manufactured from rigid Nylon/Polymer, the highback comes in at a 7.5 for stiffness. Highback adjustment is achieved via The Cube adjustor and allows for four preset angles 10°, 14°, 18°, and 22°.
