For '08 our Gator team wanted a more supportive high-end open-toe binding, so we designed this boot for the more advanced rider who still likes conventional open toe feel. The Team features our new True One Piece Plate. No hardware, no extra parts to go wrong, and with this design comes a lightness you will only believe once you pick up these bindings for the first time. Your whole set up now gets much lighter! This binding features a two-piece overlay and heel insert construction, making it the most supportive open-toe in the line.
