Straps and Highbacks

Moving up from the baseplate we get onto the heelcup, again this is fully size adjustable, and it’s made from crazy strong extruded aluminium. The heel cup is a super important part of your binding, it allows you to leverage power by stopping the highback moving, thus putting you on your heel edge. So, getting one that’s as powerful as your riding is super important.

Like everything else about the Atlas, the straps are designed for effortless transfer of power and ultimate precision. Both are fully adjustable, designed to be minimalistic on the surface, but deliver great hold by fully contouring to your boot without pressure points.

Highbacks are important, they leverage all our pressure. So as a rider who prioritises instant reaction and fast response, having a stiff highback is pretty important. Sitting at a 7/10 flex-wise and made of the same hardwearing material as the baseplate, the Atlas Duraflex CB Highback is designed specifically for the Atlas and will give great heel to toe energy transfer and a second to none fit.

Roundup

If for some reason you think the Atlas isn’t enough, there is a big daddy Atlas (The Atlas FC) which is crazy stiff and definitely isn’t for everyone. It’s made of Forged Carbon and warrants only the most experienced riders.
