Toe Strap: Übergrip Toe Strap with Vibram© EcoStep™ rubber

Co-developed with VIBR AM®, known for their high-per formance rubber outsoles, we de-signed a toe strap that combines the shape and feel of our B.E.S.T. Conver tible toe strap concept with the sticky X trek/ ECO STEP rubber from VIBR AM®. As a result, the strap adapts to any boots toe box shape while the rubber keeps the strap in place, no matter how hard you stomp your landing, whether it’s wet or freezing.

Spark R&D Tesla T1 System machined aluminum baseplate is pin and cable free, so the binding slides easily into offset touring brackets and locks into place using a snap ramp. T1 bindings slide sideways into the offset touring brackets and are locked into place with the snap ramp. T1 bindings also slide across pucks utilizing the snap ramp to lock into place for a tight ride down.
