What are the advantages of Flow bindings?
Are you still unsure whether snowboard bindings from Flow are suitable for you? Below we list all the advantages of these snowboard bindings with the well-known rear entry.
- Quick entry with a Flow binding
The most famous advantage of these popular bindings is that you can easily and quickly step in. Also known as 'Speed Entry bindings'. How does that work? Very simple. The high back of the Flow snowboard binding can be opened backward with the snaplock. This creates enough space at the back to slide your snowboard boot into the binding. Never again sit on your butt to tighten your snowboard bindings! How nice is that?
- Strong and comfortable Power Straps
Another advantage is that the Flow bindings fit comfortably. The large wide straps distribute the pressure well over the shoe. This minimizes pressure points so you hardly feel the bindings. Therefore, you barely feel the binding on your foot. With most models of Flow bindings, you can choose from two different straps:
Flow Fusion snowboard binding
This is the most traditional strap from Flow. This large and wide strap provides powerful response and directness.
Flow Hybrid snowboard binding
The Hybrid PowerStraps connect the ankle strap with a more conventional toe strap for the perfect mix of control and flexibility.
- Optimal energy transfer through the Power Triangle
Thanks to the steel cable, which is located between the high back and the baseplate, the Flow binding reacts super directly during a backside turn.
The most popular models of Flow bindings
Thanks to the Active Strap Technology, getting in and out of a Flow binding has never been easier. When the high back folds open, the strap lifts slightly, creating even more space to step in. For example, the Flow Omni, a good women's snowboard binding, is equipped with such a strap.
Flow NX2 bindings
The Flow NX2 is for every snowboarder looking for a strong, stiff, and direct snowboard binding that provides a lot of support. Since the hiback is reinforced with fiberglass and equipped with asymmetrical support panels combined with the 'Active Strap Technology', the bindings are very adjustable and allow for super quick entry. If you want even more response, you can also check out the Flow NX2 GT.
The latest models of Flow bindings
For the winter of 2021, Flow bindings came out with a whole new line of straps. Thus, the Fusion strap and the Hybrid strap have now been transformed into Powerstraps, both made from 3D-molded EVA. A Fusion powerstrap offers a one-piece powerstrap, allowing you to easily step in and out of the binding while maintaining control, grip, and comfort. The Hybrid powerstrap still includes the toe strap for those looking for more control.
Flow Snowboards
Maybe you have one lying around, a snowboard from Flow, and after years of faithful service, you're looking for a new board from this beautiful brand. Unfortunately, Flow no longer produces snowboards, but don't be disheartened; this line has been taken over by Nidecker snowboards. For example, if you had a Flow Merc and are looking for a new version of this, then the Nidecker Merc is its successor! The same applies to Flow snowboard boots. These are now also called Nidecker but are still made with the traditional Flow fit. In the past, you had the Flow Helios, and now it is the Nidecker Helios. Are you having trouble making sense of it all and would you like some advice? We have been working with both snowboard brands for years, so we can tell you exactly which Nidecker board is the best successor to your Flow snowboard.
What are the best Flow bindings?
We often get asked what the best snowboard bindings are. A Flow binding or a traditional strap binding? We are very enthusiastic about the brand Flow, but we cannot say they are better or worse than traditional strap bindings. It remains a matter of personal preference. However, we can debunk that Flow bindings are not stable enough or that you have play in Flow bindings. What is important when purchasing Flow bindings is that you set them correctly to the shoe. In addition, your snowboard boots must fit well. Experience shows that a large group of snowboarders wear boots that are too big. They feel comfortable, but when you go snowboarding, you notice that you start sliding. With a strap binding, you can get away with tightening the binding a bit too much. However, you shouldn't want this as you will get pressure points in your shoe. When you step into a Flow binding with boots that are too large, you will keep sliding in your shoe. If you then tighten the Flow binding too much, it becomes harder to get in and out. In addition, you can adjust many aspects of the bindings. If you find this difficult, feel free to visit our snowboard shop, and we'll help you with it.
