Burton Step On Genesis EST

Yes. The Step On system requires Burton Step On boots, which feature specific heel and toe cleats that lock directly into the binding interface. You cannot use standard snowboard boots with this system.

The EST mounting system is designed exclusively for Burton snowboards featuring The Channel mounting system. If your board has a standard 4x4 or 2x4 insert pattern, these bindings will not be compatible.

The Kickback Hammock is designed to cradle your boot for a more responsive, suspension-like feel. It offers a slightly more damp and comfortable ride than rigid, traditional highbacks, which helps reduce leg fatigue during long days.

The Step On system is generally very reliable in powder, but you should clear any packed snow from the heel cleat area before stepping in. Once the cleats are clear, the engagement is immediate and often easier than strapping in while sitting in deep snow.

Yes, the DialFLAD system allows you to adjust your forward lean on the fly without needing tools. You simply turn the dial on the highback to increase or decrease the angle to suit your riding style.

Not at all. The Step On interface provides a direct, secure connection that is just as responsive as traditional straps. Many riders find that the lack of pressure points from straps actually improves their overall board feel and comfort.
