The 2023 Mens Burton Cartel X Binding takes the fan favourite Cartel and knocks it up a notch (Bam!) to create the latest and greatest in binding tech, the Cartel X. Fully upgraded with a stiffer baseplate, upgraded straps for enhanced boot grip and a Heel Hammock for response and comfort in the highback, you can guarantee a better responding binding and smoother ride. For legendary performance with premium response and a buttery smooth ride, the Cartel X should be your go-to.
Binding Type: All Mountain Freestyle
Flex: 8/10 (Stiff)
Board Compatibility: Burtons Re:Flex baseplates are compatible with all major mounting systems, including The Channel System, 2x4, 4x4 and 3D (3D discs sold separately).
Baseplate:
Cartel X Re:Flex
Single-component 45% short-glass/nylon composite lightweight construction. This baseplate is made of a single solid part, which creates even response and feel throughout the whole base for consistent performance all over the mountain.
Highback:
Cartel X Highback
The Cartel X Highback consists of a single piece, resulting in instant response. This zero-lean canted design follows the contours of your legs to maximise control and comfort, while the Living Hinge built into the highback provides independent forward lean and highback rotation options while still reducing weight and materials, and works in conjunction with the Burton DialFLAD so you can easily dial in your desired forward lean.
Heel Hammock
The Cartel X goes above and beyond with the addition of a Heel Hammock at the base of the highback. This Heel Hammock features a reinforced rubbery material that wraps your boot heel, providing complete suspension for lightning fast response and a smoother boot to binding connection.
Buckles:
Smooth Glide Ratchets
Burtons Dual Component Smooth Glide Ratchets offer reliable and durable performance for hassle free ratcheting all season long. Featuring quality materials and a durable design, these ratchets are super smooth, easy to use, and are made to last.
Straps:
Hammockstrap 2.0
The new Hammockstrap 2.0 now features a lower profile and a reduced weight for a more comfortable fit. The pre curved design fits smoothly around your boot and won't be giving you any pressure points.
Flex Slider
The Burton Flex Slider gets your ankle strap out of the way, so gone are the days of battling with your ankle strap when you're trying to get your boot into your binding. These flex points are specially designed to be super strong as well, so they are just as durable despite the constant flexing.
Supergrip Capstrap 2.0
The Burton Supergrip Capstrap 2.0 is one of the best toe straps on the market, with a super grippy interior that holds onto your boot in freezing temperatures, and a design that hugs the contours of nearly every boot. This upgraded Supergrip Capstrap is fully injected to reduce waste, and features a rubber overmold to keep the strap in place while providing greater coverage over the toebox of the boot.
Cushioning:
Re:Flex Fullbed Cushioning System
This dual-density EVA footbed works to settle your boot into a naturally comfortable position, regardless of your stance width and angles, which helps to align your joints and gives you less fatigue and a more comfortable ride.
B3 Gel
B3 Gel under your heel provides ultimate dampening for hard landings and rough snow, and is formulated to withstand repeated impacts and cold temperatures without any reduction in performance.
