The friendly all-mountain binding
Ideal for all-terrain cruising, freestyle and surf slashing
The Women's Equinox binding is made for the all-mountain rider that wants a stable and comfortable binding with a tweak-able medium soft flex. The Equinox delivers precision response thanks to SKATETECH technology that transfers energy directly to your edges and a Dynamic Flex highback that's stiff in the center for solid support and softer on the sides for friendly maneuverability.

Skate Tech
The NOW Skate Tech system works like a skateboard truck and enhances board control + reduces foot fatigue by transferring energy input directly from the binding to the board edges through a dynamic design.
1. Hanger 2.0 and 3.0
Hanger pivots on the Kingpin like a lever allowing lightning fast edge-to-edge energy transfer. True baseless design that delivers the most even board flex of any binding on the market.
2. Kingpin
The Kingpin is the fulcrum that the Hanger pivots on. Design magnifies energy transfer and enhances board response through leverage.
3. Post
The Post attaches the hanger to the kingpin and is the connection between binding and board.
4. Bushings
Bushings are the primary binding contact point and offer customizable response and dampening (Surf Mode and Freeride Mode).
Unmatched turn power
Power is transmitted directly to the edge.
When you make a hard heel or toe turn the force you place on your straps and highback is transferred directly to your edge through the hanger, kingpin and post. By using the mechanical advantage of this pivot and lever system SkateTech binding are the most responsive bindings in the world. Once on edge, you are locked in.
No comparison to traditional bindings
Power is transmitted through the center disk.
When you make a hard heel or toe turn on traditional bindings the pressure you place on your straps goes into the fixed center disk and forces the binding baseplate to bend before power is delivered to the edges. Energy is concentrated at the center of the board with traditional rigid baseplates which decreases potential turn power compared to SkateTech bindings.
