Gnu Agro Binding

Gnu is co-opting the vast agricultural skills of farmers (a grow culture) to create the futuristic Agro binding featuring industry-leading Bio-Renewable Polymers and recyclable components. The Bio-Renewable Polymers are responsibly derived from non food-stock vegetation.

The new Agro binding along with the entire Gnu men’s and women’s binding line is making a total commitment to Fastec Technology. Fastec Technology enables smooth and easy “Backdoor” entry into plush state-of-the art ankle straps and toe cup(hockey chin) straps. Even snowboarders who prefer conventional equipment will love using the “Backdoor” if they’re willing to be a little experimental. Not only are Gnu Fastec “Backdoors” easy in and easy out, the unique precision foot registration and enhanced performance will make snowboarders never want to go conventional again.

The Mervin crew, who are revolutionizing the industry by putting Park Pickles and Skate Bananas between your legs, guarantee the next leap forward in binding technology starts with the Backdoor. The Agro model is green in color to remind you of your earth friendly binding choice. Try the Gnu Agro Backdoor!
