The 2022 Burton Malavita is a 100% freestyle focused binding that can handle anything and everything that can be thrown at it. Built as an absolute beast that loves to be jumped, jibbed, slashed and everything in between, the Malavita is one of the most sought after bindings that offers pro level comfort and response. Built as a perfect freestyle binding, the Malavita doesn't last long on the shelves and once you give them a go, you will understand why.
Binding Type: All Mountain Freestyle
Flex: 5-8/10 (Medium - Stiff)
Board Compatibility: This EST binding is only compatible with Burton snowboards featuring The Channel mounting system.
Baseplate:
Malavita EST
Single-component 30% short-glass/nylon composite lightweight construction. This baseplate is made of a single solid part, which creates even response and feel throughout the whole base for consistent performance all over the mountain.
The Hinge
Specific to Burton EST models, The Hinge puts flex points on the sides of your bindings, which allows the board to flex more naturally and reduces stress and fatigue on your legs.
Highback:
Malavita Highback
The Malavita Highback consists of a single piece, resulting in instant response. This zero-lean canted design follows the contours of your legs to maximise control and comfort, and the Living Hinge built into the highback provides independent forward lean and highback rotation options while still reducing weight and materials, and works in conjunction with the Burton DialFLAD so you can easily dial in your desired forward lean.
Buckles:
Double Take Ratchets
Burtons Double Take Ratchets feature one of the quickest and easiest ratchet designs on the market. Helical teeth and 'insta-click' engagement combine for increased torque per crank, and fewer cranks needed to get to your desired tightness.
Straps:
Asym Hammockstrap
The Asym Hammockstrap has a minimal, stitchless design that pushes the boundaries of what an ankle strap can be. This injection moulded, 3D curved, ultra light strap is supportive, comfortable, and features an asymmetrical pad and spine shape that wraps the boot for outstanding response.
Flex Slider
The Burton Flex Slider gets your ankle strap out of the way, so gone are the days of battling with your ankle strap when you're trying to get your boot into your binding. These flex points are specially designed to be super strong as well, so they are just as durable despite the constant flexing.
Supergrip Capstrap 2.0
The Burton Supergrip Capstrap 2.0 is one of the best toe straps on the market, with a super grippy interior that holds onto your boot in freezing temperatures, and a design that hugs the contours of nearly every boot. This upgraded Supergrip Capstrap is fully injected to reduce waste, and features a rubber overmold to keep the strap in place while providing greater coverage over the toebox of the boot.
Cushioning:
AutoCANT SensoryBED Cushioning System
This dual-density EVA footbed works to settle your boot into a naturally comfortable position, regardless of your stance width and angles, which helps to align your joints and gives you less fatigue and a more comfortable ride.
B3 Gel
B3 Gel under your heel provides ultimate dampening for hard landings and rough snow, and is formulated to withstand repeated impacts and cold temperatures without any reduction in performance.
