Og Supermatic 26/27
Milkshake

The Nidecker OG Supermatic is a hands-free speed entry snowboard binding. It works with almost every boot model and brand. This version comes in Milkshake.

Push your foot in through the back and step down on the heel pedal. The highback flips up and the binding is closed. A simple release lever gets you out just as quickly. Nidecker calls this Drop IN, and it lets you ride straight off the chairlift without touching a buckle. On the snow, the Supermatic rides like a classic two-strap binding, and on a steep slope or in deep snow you can still work the ratchets as normal. The mid-stiff flex adds a touch more control in fast turns, take-offs and landings. LSR 2.0 ratchets lock in both directions as soon as you stop cranking, so you set your strap tension once and adjust it quickly on the fly. Both straps use AuxTech, a webbed pattern that expands evenly around the boot without stretching the material. That spreads pressure more evenly and reduces foot fatigue.
