Burton Cartel X EST Step On Black 2026 Snowboard Bindings

The Burton Step On® Cartel X EST bindings are built for riders who demand precision, convenience, and all-mountain performance. Combining the stiff responsiveness of the Cartel X with Burton’s innovative Step On® system, they deliver uncompromised control with the simplicity of a quick, boot-to-binding connection.

At the heart of this model is the Step On® interface, which eliminates traditional straps. Three secure connection points — two at the toe and one at the heel — provide a locked-in feel that’s seamless and reliable. Entry and exit are quick and intuitive, making transitions smoother without sacrificing performance.

The EST® baseplate design optimizes board feel and flex by removing unnecessary material underfoot and replacing it with cushioning. Paired with Burton’s Re:Flex FullBED cushioning system, it enhances comfort while maximizing energy transfer. This creates a more natural board feel, particularly when paired with Burton’s Channel® mounting system.

Support comes from the Cartel X highback, engineered with a stiffer flex for immediate response and powerful edge control. The canted design aligns naturally with your legs, improving comfort while reducing fatigue on long days.

These bindings are tuned for advanced riders who want a binding that performs across groomers, steeps, and freeride terrain. With their stiff flex rating, they deliver the precision needed for aggressive turns, jumps, and fast riding, while still offering enough cushioning for comfort across varied conditions.

Finished in a clean, technical design, the Step On® Cartel X EST represents the next step in binding innovation — no straps, no wasted time, just locked-in performance.
