The Burton Hitchhiker binding pairs the easiness of Spark R&D's Tesla T1 System baseplate with exclusive features like Burton's ankle Hammockstrap and toe Supergrip Capstrap, both featuring the speed & strength of their Double-Take buckles; topped off with an exclusive hi-back featuring skintrack-friendly negative Forward Lean options.
Ankle Strap
Hammockstrap ankle strap is ultra-responsive with a stitch-less construction and minimal materials, featuring a nylon cross spine for a more direct board connection
Toe Strap
Supergrip Capstrap 2.0 toe strap is fully injected to reduce waste and features a rubber overmold to keep the strap in place and increase grip while wrapping over the toebox of the boot
Baseplate
Spark R&D Tesla T1 System machined aluminum baseplate is pin and cable free, so the binding slides easily into offset touring brackets and locks into place using a snap ramp
Hi-Back
Single-component hi-back construction features one material throughout, providing consistent response and feel while riding in any terrain
Forward Lean
Negative forward lean hi-back is designed for comfortable backcountry touring
Quick-adjust FLAD system allows you to make micro adjustments to your forward lean angle to customize your ride
Buckles
Double Take buckles offer quicker engagement, faster tongue uptake, and fewer cranks to tighten your straps for vastly improved strength, speed, and ease-of-use
