ROME KATANA - EMERALD - 2021

Description:

OFTEN IMITATED, NEVER DUPLICATED.

Tried and true, the Rome Katana is the binding that pushed the envelope and redefined what customization means for bindings. This all-terrain butcher is equally comfortable dissecting tree runs or spinning through the jump line. Armed with the new ProFlex ankle strap, ultra-adjustable PivotMount Max and the surfy board feel only found on Rome’s AsymWrap platform, the Katana is always dialed and never dull.

Features:

• ASYMWRAP: Built to maximize tweakability and a surfy board feel, our innovative AsymWrap platform started the conversation about how bindings can and should ride
• PROFLEX ANKLE STRAP: All-new and powered by AuxTech™, these are incredibly expandable, super-durable and provide superior locked-in hold.
• PROGRIP TOE STRAP: Powered by AuxTech™, this innovative network of small hinges provides unmatched hold and locked-in grip.
• PIVOTMOUNT MAX: A Rome exclusive binding innovation, PivotMounts are small adjustable pieces that allow riders to move the position of their ankle straps on their boots. The higher up on your boot the ankle strap sits, the more power and turn initiation. The lower the strap goes, the more surfy and tweakable your riding will be. PivotMount Max provides 8 different strap options per side of the ankle strap, 64 configurations total.
• HIGHBACK ROTATION: Designed so riders can adjust their highbacks to mirror the angle of their heelside edge for maximum power transfer.
• HIGHBACK CANTING: Built so that riders can adjust the angle of their highback to mirror the angle of their lower leg for increased connection and stability.
• ADJUSTABLE BASEPLATE: Created to help fit a wider range of boot models and sizes.

Flex: 6-8/10 (1 = playful, 10 = Precise)

Sizes: M/L, L/XL

Materials:

• HIGHBACK: 15% GLASS / 85% NYLON
• BASEPLATE: 30% GLASS / 70% NYLON
• D3O SUBBASE PAD
• Auxetic Shape Technology™ is the result of years of refining and rethinking how binding parts work and how we can improve their grip and durability. Auxetic patterns are geometric patterns that become thicker perpendicularly when stretched. Think of them as a network of tiny hinges, that when pressure is applied, they actually expand and open. This creates a more direct connection to the boot. Better grip, increased durability and better connected-comfort, that's AuxTech.

Sizing:

** DEPENDS ON BOOT/BINDING STYLE AND/OR BRAND - SAFEST TO UPSIZE. ROME RECOMMENDS CHECKING THE BOOT TO BINDING FIT WITH AN ADJUSTED BINDING.
THIS CHART SERVES AS A GUIDELINE. AT ROME WE BELIEVE THAT CUSTOMIZATION MATTERS - CENTER YOUR BOOT FOR THE PERFORMANCE AND FEEL THAT SNOWBOARDING DEMANDS.

*** CRUX L/XL BINDING RECOMMENDED FOR SIZE 13-14 US.
