The 2025 Burton Mens X EST Binding takes a minimalist approach to design while maximising performance. Stripping back all the unnecessary parts and only including the lightest and most responsive performance-focused features, Burton have created the X EST to deliver the ultimate board to binding connection while maintaining a smooth and responsive ride. This is the culmination of technological advancements in Burton bindings, delivering incredible response, springy suspension, pro-calibre control, and lightweight construction that has to be felt to be believed.
Binding Type: All Mountain
Flex: 8/10 (Stiff)
Board Compatibility: This EST binding is only compatible with Burton snowboards featuring The Channel mounting system.
Baseplate:
X EST
Single-component 50/50 carbon fibre/nylon composite blend 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. The EST-specific baseplate features no hardware underfoot with a flexible footbed, giving you enhanced board feel and maintaining natural board flex.
Highback:
X Highback
The X 'Ultra' Highback has an incredibly lightweight minimal design that provides the highest standard of performance in a simplified package. Made from a carbon composite, the X highback is one of the most responsive and lightweight highbacks available.
Buckles:
Double Take Ratchets
Burtons Double Take Ratchets feature one of the quickest and easiest ratchet designs on the market. Helical teeth and 'insta-click' engagement combine for increased torque per crank, and fewer cranks needed to get to your desired tightness.
Straps:
Asym Hammockstrap
The Asym Hammockstrap has a minimal, stitchless design that pushes the boundaries of what an ankle strap can be. This injection moulded, 3D curved, ultra light strap is supportive, comfortable, and features an asymmetrical pad and spine shape that wraps the boot for outstanding response.
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:
SpringBed Suspension System
This groundbreaking suspension system is like having a trampoline underfoot, lifting you off the board for amplified cushioning and enhanced rebound.
