Inspired by how a skateboard turns; major components of this system mimic both the function and description of skateboard trucks. The Hanger powerfully transfers energy input from the straps to the bushings and onto the edges of the board. The Kingpin acts as a fulcrum, magnifying this energy through leverage. NOW bindings bypass the middle of the snowboard and direct your energy right onto the boards edges.HANGER 2.0
The Hanger 2.0 offers is a widened heelcup footprint that ups the ante on boot-fitting compatibility, a drop-down medial wall for added lateral flexibility, and snow clearing channels to prevent ice build-up underneath the highback legs.Snowboards Sizing Guide
In addition to other important factors like skill level and terrain type, choosing the right snowboard for you depends on knowing which size is best suited for your height and weight. These two simple measurements provide an approximate guide for beginners who are new to the sport and are unsure where to start when it comes to sizing. Use the following size chart to help guide you to the perfect snowboard.

On average, your snowboard should fall somewhere between your chin and the very bottom of your nose when held upright. There are a few additional details that play a significant role in determining which snowboard size is the right fit for you. After consulting the size chart, be sure to consider your weight, skill level, snowboarding style and the type of terrain you’ll be frequenting.
Here are some reasons for sizing up or down:
- Size up if you are closer to the high end of your weight range or above average weight for your height.
- Size up if you are an advanced/expert rider who is speed-driven and wants maximum power.
- Size down if you are a beginner/intermediate snowboarder.
- Size down if you are a freestyle or park rider looking for enhanced overall control and maneuverability.
Snowboard Width
Some snowboard models are also offered in wider waist widths, an extra detail that comes into play for riders with larger boot/binding sizes (typically US Men’s 11.5+ or Women’s 13+).
