Nidecker 2027 SUPERMATIC Snowboard Bindings

Nidecker Supermatic is what we have been waiting for in snowboarding: the first universal automatic binding with the option of a classic buckle closure. Many brands have tried and failed to crack the step-in code. Most of these systems required special boots, many of them did not perform well in powder, and none of them was as comfortable and reliable as a regular two-strap binding.

After four years spent by Team Nidecker developing its own step-in system, a proprietary solution for automatically fastened step-in bindings was created, solving almost all of the problems of this type of snowboard binding in harsh winter conditions. After some time of testing and after the first period of sales, it turned out that Supermatic is a real breakthrough for snowboarding.

SUPERMATIC - CONSTRUCTION

The binding has a solid construction to perform in all difficult winter conditions. It is made of impact-resistant fiberglass (stiffness) and nylon (flexibility). A very important role in the binding is played by the innovative roller located on the inner part of the highback, over which the sole and heel of the boot slide frictionlessly into the binding. Then, at the base, there is a slippery Slip-N-Grip pad, which makes it easier for the boot to slide over the pad, helping the boot enter the binding quickly and easily. A massive metal (rustproof) two-sided locking mechanism locks or releases the highback, which, when closing, like in Flow bindings, presses the boot with great force into the binding and prevents it from loosening. The nylon asymmetrical highback (Hiback Asym Hadron) was designed to perfectly match the shape of the boot. The highback has varied stiffness, transferring energy where it is needed while riding. The highback features forward lean adjustment, which makes it easier to adapt to conditions, riding style, and the rider. The straps have the same comfortable AuxTech construction found in higher-end traditional Nidecker and Flow bindings, as well as the identical Hybrid strap. Very important is that Supermatic is equipped with universal multi-discs that fit all binding mounting systems on boards: 4HP (4X4), 3HP (3D), Channel (IDS). Additionally, Nidecker offers a new disc for rental shops or for those who want to easily change binding angles on the board; this special and advanced disc is the "Rental EasyLock" disc with the "Easy Lock" system (the disc is permanently mounted on the board, and you unclip the bindings from the board and can put them in a bag (transport, storage) or, during use, easily change the binding angles on the board while testing different settings; the price of the EasyLock disc is 299 PLN (pair) - ask our staff about these discs.

The beauty of this system is that it works with any boot from any manufacturer and there is no complicated mechanism that could jam. If conditions on the slope require it, e.g. in deep snow, you can then step in or out of them in the same way as with classic bindings.

SUPERMATIC - OPERATION

At first, you adjust the strap and straps to the boot size once, preparing the binding for further use, set the highback angle, etc... And now the quick action on the snow:

1. Step in > 1s for each leg = 2s and ride.

Why so fast? Because Supermatic works on the principle of a tilting highback, similar to the Flow system, which we also call Drop-In Tech.

All you need to do is push the boot through the back of the binding and step with the heel of the boot onto the lever of the locking mechanism, which in a fraction of a second automatically locks, securing the boot.

You are ready to ride within 2 seconds.

2. Step out > 2s for each leg = 4s and unbound.

The bindings have a solid lever located on the inner (safe) side of the binding, which you press with your thumb after bending down to the bindings. Under pressure, the lock is released and the binding opens.

In parallel with this maneuver, it is a good idea to press the boot onto the strap while leaning forward, and then the strap holding the boot lifts up and makes getting out of the binding quick as well.

!! Warning !! Do not press the opening lever with the boot; too much pressure may break it.

SUPERMATIC - SUMMARY

In summary, Supermatic is a medium-stiff binding rated 8/10, which the Nidecker team assessed as the most comfortable so far. We tested it everywhere - on groomed slopes, on steep descents in deep snow, and in the park riding obstacles - with the participation of many riders from around the world invited to test Supermatic bindings. It is the best quick-entry system you can trust. Whether you are tired of bending down, sitting in the snow and getting your pants wet while fastening straps, or you want to annoy your skier friends by riding away from the lift faster, or maybe you have a big belly :) and it is hard for you to bend down... certainly every one of these situations is positively solved by Supermatic bindings! Have a great ride and a beautiful winter, wishes FLOWSHOP.
