The Switchback Eiki Pro is the pro model of Eiki Helgason and every freestyler’s dream. As unique as Eiki himself, the Eiki Pro features the Areon Base, Miller Straps and Flatback Highback and comes matching with the design of Eiki's Lobster pro model.
Switchback bindings are probably the most versatile bindings you can find. Made of four components (baseplate, padding, straps, and highback), you can modify or upgrade the bindings to match changes in conditions, style or performance, anytime, in seconds.
Highback
Designed by Eiki Helgason, the Flatback Highback provides tip-to-tail mobility and heel-to-toe response. Their minimal curvature makes them super flexible for jibs and grabs, but their tall height supports high speed carves and hefty landings. They are anatomically shaped and have an adjustable forward lean to dial in your desired responsiveness.
Baseplate
The Eiki Pro features the Aeron base, the result of years of research. It is a stronger and lighter base using a new technique: overmolding forged aluminium with the highest grade polyamide nylon. A minimized disc and minimized footprint provide a more natural board flex. The Aeron Padding has the perfect combination of shock absorption in the heel – with cushy boot-to-board EVA, and response in the toe – with a tough nylon frame and EVA top layer.
Straps
The Miller Straps are made for freestyle performance. They are flexible, pre-curved, and form-fitting to hug the contours of any boot. The perforated mesh makes them more flexible and reduces pinch areas, while the outer strap disperses pressure evenly across the foot.

They are the world’s first fully customizable binding, made to give riders the chance to adapt their bindings to their own personal riding style. The main aim of the company, as with all things Helgason, is to create products that make snowboarding more fun.
