The Malavita takes advantage of Burton’s Re:Flex binding design, providing additional flex and a more responsive feel while incorporating a Living Hinge Hi-Back to remove excess weight and allow even more individualization by independently adjusting hi-back rotation and forward lean – with the fast and easy, tool-free DialFLAD – for forward and aggressive pipe riding or a more laid-back all-mountain stance. Since the Malavita is more than just a park binding, a 30 percent short-glass/nylon composite construction provides a more responsive and stiffer feel than a traditionally softer pure park binding. Following this line, the Malavita’s reversible lateral Asyms strap also offers riders the ability to choose between a stiffer and more powerful shape or a softer and more mobile one. To keep you riding all day, Burton has fused B3 Gel into the Re:Flex Full BED system to provide the same long-term, high-end cushioning found in Burton’s best boots.
