Ride Drone Binding Test Notes

“Setting it up was super easy. There’s a lot of adjustability in the heel cup and highback, and one of my favourite features is the toolless adjustment system—you can just slide things back and forth. Super simple and easy to use. The toe strap was also really comfy and wrapped around my toe really well.
I tested this binding all over the resort—big-mountain riding in the slush, in the park, in the pipe, even in a banked slalom—and it felt super comfortable. I felt locked in at all times, and it performed really well.
A few of my favourite things about this binding: the clean look, the way it fit my boot right away, how easy it was to adjust, and how comfortable it felt. This binding is perfect for someone looking for comfort, lightweight performance, easy adjustability, and high-level performance.” —Aari
