After a triumphant debut, the Blaze returns for the 2011/2012 season better than ever. Solid enough for any freerider, yet flexible enough for tight trees and backcountry freestyle, the Blaze can do it all. The all CNC machined Baseplate is designed to fit direct onto the Voile mounting system, this brings the foot closer to the board increasing control and feel as well as increasing torsional rigidity of the board.
Want to go top to bottom in three turns? The Burner has you covered. The Burner is a stiffer binding designed specifically for high speed big mountain riding. As with the Blaze the Burner features the CNC machined Baseplate designed to fit the Voile mounting system.
