Salomon Relay Pro G.I.F.T. Binding

This season, snowboard binding brands are experimenting with recycling the waste scraps from standard binding manufacture, and re-grinding the plastic into fresh baseplate and highback material. The process reduces the amount of virgin plastics used, and saves landfills, and oceans, from more polluting plastics. Salomon men's Relay Pro Gift (Green Initiative For Tomorrow) Binding is one model incorporating organic corn-based polymers and reground base material to reduce demand for virgin plastics. It also features Salomon's successful Flatframe Integra Highback, a highback with a distinct flex pattern and asymmetrical shape that secures the Relay Pro's lateral support. Another nice touch is the lightweight 3D Supreme Light Strap, an ergonomic strap system that eliminates the pressure points commonly encountered on conventional snowboard binding straps.
