What is clew bindings?

Clew bindings are a type of snowboard binding that attaches the rider's boots to the board. It gets its name from the two straps that attach to the boot's heel and toe, resembling a "clew" or a knot used in sailing.

Clew bindings are popular among freestyle snowboarders, as they offer flexibility and allow for a wider range of motion compared to traditional bindings. They provide a lot of ground control and make it easy to maneuver the board. This type of binding is also known for its light weight and minimalistic design.

One potential drawback of clew bindings is that they may not offer the same level of support and stability as other binding types. They can also be more difficult to adjust or tighten on the fly than traditional bindings.

Clew bindings come in a range of styles and designs, with variations in strap placement and flex. They are compatible with most snowboard boot types and can be adjusted to fit different foot sizes.
