Legions of riders have embraced the Mission during its decade-plus reign, because it continually smokes the competition when it comes to comfortable and reliable response. The workhorse of Burton’s binding lineup offers pro-grade features like ergonomic highbacks featuring Zero Forward Lean and undoubtedly the best straps and buckles in the industry. Go with Re:Flex™ and start your Mission!
Highback
The simplicity of a one-piece highback means immediate response. This ergonomic Hi-Back design follows the natural contours legs to maximise control and comfort. Riders who prefer a more playful and relaxed feel will dig the Zero Forward Lean. As always, you can still choose to crank ‘em forward for quicker control when carving or climbing icy pipe walls. The higher the Forward Lean angle on your highbacks, the quicker your heel edge turns. Crank ’em forward for icy hits in the pipe, or back ’em off for jibbing. For mind-blowing micro-adjustability, the DialFLAD™ system gives you twice the options of the traditional FLAD.
Baseplate
Re:Flex™ offers more flex and board feel than traditional disc bindings. The minimised, cored baseplate reduces weight and expands the cushioning potential. A Single-Component Baseplate construction throughout creates a consistent response and feel for all-terrain domination. The 30 % Short-Glass/Nylon Composite material is slightly more responsive and still very playful. Re:Flex™ FullBED Cushioning System offers a full coverage, cushioned platform that maximises comfort while minimising fatigue. Anchored to the baseplate, its stealth trap door design makes it easy to access the mounting hardware.
Straps
The Reactstrap™ scores with a minimized construction and 3D® curved, triple-axis spine. The ultra-responsive wrap conforms to any boot. The Supergrip Capstrap™ 2.0 with its minimalist design merges two materials into one technologically advanced toe strap. A firmer material in the spine provides a supportive and lightweight skeleton, while a softer over-moulded material improves boot wrap and comfort.
