Boot Size Compatibility

Snowboard binding sizes (S, M, L) are based on boot size, but every brand maps sizes differently. A Medium from one brand might fit a US 8-10, while another brand's Medium fits US 7-9. Always check the size chart on the specific binding before ordering. If you're between sizes, size up. A tight binding on a wide boot will pinch your toes and ruin the day.

Hole Pattern Compatibility

Snowboards use one of three main mounting patterns:

4x2 (also called 2x4). The modern standard. Most boards made in the last decade use this. Almost every binding works with it.

4x4. Older pattern, still found on some boards. Most bindings include a disc that fits this too.

Burton Channel / EST. Burton boards with The Channel only accept Burton EST bindings, or bindings sold with a Channel-compatible disc. Check the disc options before ordering.

Match Binding Flex To Boot Flex

Soft binding plus soft boot equals a playful park setup. Stiff binding plus stiff boot equals a responsive all-mountain or freeride setup. Mixing extremes (very stiff binding on a very soft boot, or vice versa) feels disconnected. We're happy to help match these over the phone.

Tools You Need

A #3 Phillips screwdriver is the only required tool. A small hex tool comes with most bindings for highback and toe-cap adjustments. Skip the cordless drill, it's too easy to over-tighten and strip the threaded inserts.

Step 1: Set Your Stance Width

Stance width is the distance between the centers of your two bindings. A good starting point is roughly shoulder-width. To find your exact preferred width: stand flat, feet shoulder-width apart, then bend your knees like you're about to sit down. Wherever your feet settle is your stance width. Most adult riders end up between 21 and 24 inches (53 to 61 cm).

Step 2: Pick Your Stance Angles

Stance angles are measured in degrees from the board's center axis. Most bindings have a rotating disc with degree markings.

Duck stance (+15/-15 or +12/-12). The most popular all-mountain and park stance. Both feet angled outward, lets you ride switch comfortably.

Forward stance (+15/+6 or +18/+3). Both feet angled toward the nose. Better for carving and groomers, harder for riding switch.

Beginner default: +15/-9. If you're not sure, start here and adjust after a couple of days on snow.

Step 3: Centered or Setback?

Most boards have a reference stance marker on the topsheet, dead center between the bindings. Use that for all-mountain riding. For deep snow days, slide both bindings back 1-2 inches (about 2-5 cm setback toward the tail) to keep the nose floating.

Step 4: Mount the Discs

Drop the binding's mounting disc into the inserts at your chosen stance width and angle. Start all four screws by hand first to confirm clean threads. Tighten in a star pattern (one corner, then the opposite corner, then the other two) so the disc seats evenly. Snug, not gorilla-tight. Over-tightening is the number one way to strip an insert, which is a board-killer.

Step 5: Highback Rotation & Forward Lean

Highback rotation should run parallel to the board's heel edge, not your stance angle, for the strongest heelside response. Most highbacks have a small adjustment screw on the back you can loosen to rotate. Forward lean is the angle the highback presses into your calf: 0-2 for park and pressing tricks, 3-5 for carving steeper terrain.

Step 6: Strap Fit

The toe cap should sit on the toe of the boot, not on top of the foot. The ankle strap should cross the boot's natural flex point, never your shin. Slide the straps to center them on the boot, then ratchet snug.

Re-check After Day One

Screws settle in. Loose hardware is the most common cause of binding problems, and it's an easy fix. Tighten everything after your first full day of riding, then check periodically through the season.

Free ground shipping on most orders over $50. 14-day return policy on unmounted bindings in original packaging. Bindings that have been mounted cannot be returned. Full policy.
