Nidecker Supermatic Step In Snowboard Bindings - These Legit? Testing & Review

Join the 'Not Sitting while Strapping In' Revolution 🏂

I got the new Supermatic step ins and give them a solid test run.

They look like them, but do they ride like ‘normal’ bindings? And how does the step in and out function work?

The step in binding allure especially ramps up with newer options like these Nidecker Supermatic bindings, which allow you to also strap in and out.

It comes in handy more often than you'd think. Would you give these a go? Comment below.

Once you realize they don't have to be as tight as you think they do they absolutely perform on the highest level. I was frustrated until I figured them out. Once I figured them out, it's fucking game over. It's all I will ride for the rest of my life. It's so nice just stepping g into them.
Solid solid solid binding. But heavier, but who cares when you are ripping. Doesn't stop my methods from being cranked. Stiff binding.

Just got my first board setup with these. Once you get used to them, it's fun. It's all practice but it's been a great investment.

I have a pair of these also this year. They do take some getting used to too. But once you get them figured out they’re nice. I also do not have a wide stance so this makes easier with entry angle of your boot into the binding. I do like them but I find myself making sure to have snow on my boots to help things slide into place. I also like how they lay open for chair lift rides, and playing by boot under for weight balance and not have an edge cut my boot. I was very frustrated at start, but give them a chance. I have had no foot pain. Good overall video!

Try doing up all the laces on the boots as i notice your knee would move but boot still in the bindings when trying to get out!😂

If you are the type of Rider where you like tight straps, all you gotta do is unloosen the straps before you release high back to pull boot out. Obviously you will have to readjust straps when you step back in but worth it for the convenience to f stepping in.

Also if you are fatter like me and have trouble reaching the release button, you can just completely unstrap to get boot out!

Any problems with powder clearing? I am a long time flow guy and the ability to kick snow through to the front kinda makes me worry about these...

[and]

Try loosening the middle strap that connects the 2 bindings it can help alot.

Any updates on your thoughts? Would you recommend?

[tylerhamilton]

Appreciate your review. You bring new insights unlike other videos about foot pain and specific angles. Other videos also support your finding of getting out difficulty.

I'd appreciate more review and less watching you ride - would be better use of my time (ROI)
