Adding on extra snowboard binding comfort features doesn't require a price hike. Check out Ride's LX snowboard binding. It keeps beginners and recreational riders going down the mountain throughout the day with plenty of support and responsive handling. Ride designed the LX with comfort first, optimizing the fit with a balance of shock-absorption potential along the binding straps and a Comfort Highback. The LX also has Ride's Comfort Ankle Strap System with Stitched 3D construction and dual density EVA and polyurethane padding. While other snowboard binding companies skip the convertible toe strap option on their recreational offerings, the LX includes the feature without sticking you with extras on the bill. Whether you ride with the strap over the top of your boot or over the toe, the choice is up to you and your riding style. Like the rest of the snowboard bindings in Ride's Foundation Line, the LX is built extra tough to take plenty of abuse. Sure, it might not have the fashion print found on Ride's EX snowboard binding, but if comfort is everything, the LX binding is all that matters.
