The Burton Lexa EST is a stiff snowboard binding with a composite baseplate made from a blend of nylon and fibreglass, giving it strength and lightness. The high back is flexible and the straps provide good support on high-speed turns. All this is complemented by the cushioning provided by the footbed of the baseplate, which adds comfort. Made for experienced, all-round riders, this binding is perfect for carving downhill on groomed snow, or for more technical backcountry riding. More advanced snowboarders will even be able to throw in a few tricks thanks to the fairly flat high back. The EST version of this binding is designed to be fitted to Burton boards equipped with The Channel system. What are the strengths of the Burton Lexa EST snowboard binding?
