Description

Note: This product comes with everything you need to start using snowboard bindings on your 4×4 skiboards. (bindings, risers, highback wings, 3rd straps and hardware)

The holy grail of skiing has always been to chuck your uncomfortable hard ski boots and enjoy the soft comfort of snowboarding boots. While this is just a pipe dream for traditional skiers, skiboarders on the other hand have been experimenting with this option for a few years now. Through individual experimentation and community knowledge sharing here is what we’ve learned up to this point:A) While you can take any snowboard bindings and attach them to quality 4×4 skiboards the resulting ride is so poor it outweighs any softboot comfort gains.

B) For this to work 3 things are required:

RISER – to lift the bindings. Preferably a solid, light weight riser for more precise edge control
EXTRA WIDE THIRD STRAP – to lock your boot to the….
RIGID, WINGED HIGHBACK – to provide a lateral support structure and a rigid surfacefor the third strap.

C) No snowboarding company makes a binding with these 3 features so skiboarders have to make or modify their own.

Enter the Skiboardsonline.com modified Snowjam / 540 Snowboard bindings. High quality snowboard binding? – check. Solid, Lightweight Riser? – check. Third strap? – check. Rigid, winged highback? – check. Order this pair of bindings with your next board purchase, or purchase it alone to install on any 4×4 skiboards, and when you’re standing in the bar at the end of an awesome day of skiboarding wearing the same boots you skied in all day you’ll understand all the hype.

I have nothing but positive things to say about these bindings. I’ve been a skier for 25 years. I made the switch to skiblades when they came out, and switched to skiboards about 5 years ago. My feet have always suffered at the hands of my ski boots. I am happy to say that they suffer no more! I bought a pair of K2 Maysis [Flex 7] and had 2 of the best days of riding ever. The binding boot combination performed exceptionally in powder, on moguls, carved beautifully and screamed down the groomers. My concerns about switching from release bindings and boots were immediately negated after my first run. Can’t wait for Tahoe in a few weeks!

I’ve gotten so many mind-blown looks, head turns & compliments on these SnowJam snowboard boot bindings for my skiboards – its awesome!!
Although I can’t take the credit when people ask if I made them myself, it still feels pretty good to get such positive reactions from guys running the chair lifts & people that I meet on the slopes.
Not to mention they allow me to FINALLY wear a snowboard boot. This is a major plus for me. I love my skiboards being paired with these bindings!
