ULTRA
ALL TERRAIN FREESTYLE FREEDOM
PROGRESSIVE CONTACT.
When developing the Ultra, Gigi had one goal: Uncompromised board flex and feel. To create a binding that had these characteristics required reducing the contact points on the base and integrating flexible, dampening EVA. By combining Vaporlite 2.0 with the Minidisk, we've lowered the direct binding to board contact to 5% and maintained the progressive flex Gigi loves.
VAPORLITE 2.0
Vaporlite 2.0 is the evolution of closed cell foam often featured on high-end running shoes. This water resistant, durable material maintains its superior dampening characteristics in cold temperatures, providing a cushioned and natural ride.
MINIDISK
Minimal Contact Footprint allows for even board flex and is compatible with the 4x2 mounting pattern, as well as The Channel from Burton. With a mere 5% binding to board contact area, the MD Base enhances natural board flex, boosting performance and overall durability.
FEATURED TECHNOLOGY
+ DURAFLEX CB - MD BASE:
5% binding to board contact allows for even board flex and is compatible with the 4x2 mounting pattern, as well as The Channel from Burton.
+ VAPORLITE 2.0:
Vaporlite 2.0 is the evolution of closed cell foam often featured on high-end running shoes. Super durable and damp to vibrations in all temps. Waterproof.
+ EXTRUDED 3D ALUMINUM HEELCUPS:
The rigidity and strength of Extruded Aluminum acts like a roll cage on a race car - stiffening the entire chassis. The male/female connection with the base provides seamless response.
+ FORGED CARBON HIGHBACKS:
Working in harmony with the surfy feel of the MD Base, Forged Carbon provides the strength and rapid response, for nimble board control and connection.
+ EXOFRAME/AIR ANKLE STRAPS:
All new for 17/18, ExoFrame/Air produces strength and rapid response on the outside, fit and pillowed comfort on the inside.
+ MAGNESIUM 2.0 RATCHETS:
Four times stronger than aluminum with only half the weight, Union buckles are built to last. The new 2.0 design is ten percent lighter than previous versions.
