North understands comfort is critical to performance. That’s why North dedicated two years to refining their best value lightweight binding, ensuring a balance of simplicity and support with a single fastening strap and anatomical cushioned footbed. North identified exactly what you need and removed what you don’t, crafting every detail with fine precision.
LIGHTWEIGHT MINIMAL DESIGN
Simplicity and ergonomic comfort, with one single strap for even tension.
North balanced simplicity and support with a single fastening strap, and they optimized the footbed thickness and durometer for cushioned comfort.
SUPER-FAST ASSEMBLY WITH MAXIMUM ADJUSTABILITY
Move your bindings backwards (heelside) or forwards (toeside), set the position for a wide or narrow stance, and change your duck stance.
Simply drop the entire binding onto the board and insert the screw where you want it. The intuitive Flex connection system uses standardised M6x16mm screw hardware to fasten the binding to the board in various positions with easy stance adjustment to suit all riders. The oval hole allows for both 6”- 6.5” industry standard screw spacings.
ANATOMICAL COMFORT WITH GRIP WITH WET
The anatomically-shaped footbed is engineered using a single layer of waterproof rubberized EVA foam.
Lightweight, durable, and impact absorbing, with the grip pattern height increased for added comfort, its forward-angled anti-slip serration pattern helps your foot stay in place on various angles. The shock-absorbing footbed is ergonomically angled to encourage optimised weight distribution and knee alignment, provide core support and reduce pressure on your feet, knees, hips and back.
SEAMLESS KNITFLEX TOP STRAP
The soft and comfortable single-fastening strap conforms to all foot shapes, while the rigid skeletal frame within the strap ensures a supportive locked feel.
North's unique seamless KnitFlex lining is pre-tensioned and laminated to the conforming foam inner, so it can create a 3D-curve without any bunching or creasing, and there’s no stitching to rub on your foot.
EXTENDED LATERAL ARCH SUPPORTS
The inner and outer arch supports ensure an even distribution of weight and stabilize the tarsal bones, allowing for a more solid stance and maximum support during hard landings.
The arch supports are extended inside the strap to ensure comfort where the top strap meets the footbed, protecting your foot from the most rigid load-bearing part of the binding. No blisters, no hard edges.
RAISED TOE GRIP
The raised toe grip allows your toes to remain loose and spread out in their natural position, while also providing an edge for riders to get purchase on.
The new softer toe bar has been engineered to suit different foot shapes, allowing the rider to grip on with toes and prevent your foot from slipping out during high rotation tricks and landings.
SHAPED HEEL CUP
The shaped heel cup cradles the heel and stabilizes the foot upon impact. North engineered it wider on the new Flex so you can lock your foot sideways in both directions.
INJECTION VELCRO STRAP
Decreases sand and debris retention. Extended top flaps increase hold and reduce water lift.
LONGITUDINALLY CONVEXED CHASSIS SHAPE
The convex drives more pressure on to the tip and heel of the chassis when the binding is attached to the board, locking out sand and debris from under the binding.
FLIPTECH MOUNTING
For 2023 and 2024, all of the North TwinTip boards have North's new FlipTech Mounting System, with centerline inserts. This means if you wear out one side of your board, simply flip the bindings around and you've got a fresh new heel side rail again.
Flex bindings are compatible with both FlipTech boards and offline board mounting systems. The '2” indicator on the Flex is for the boards that have flip tech, and is North's recommended setup positioning for a 15/-15 degree duck stance.
TWO SIZE OPTIONS
A good starting point would be a Men's US 9 and above for binding size L/XL, but North highly recommends trying before purchase to guarantee the best fit.
North found it's more to do with the shape and angle of your upper foot than foot length when aiming for the most effective fit. Positioning and adjustment settings are printed on the binding to make setup simple and intuitive. With more labels printed on the binding than ever, you’ll never have to refer to the User Manual again.
