Sublimity Snow & Skate

The Foretelling of Freestyle 

John Jackson and Pat Moore have conjured up violent spirits to guide them into the future of freestyle snowboarding. Acting as their medium, the Republic evokes these spirits from a history of powerful yet flexible bindings. Dark graphics done by infamous rock-and-roll band The Bronx, as well as NEW Simmer Down Canting and the Good Vibes Hinge Disk, settle these violent spirits, channeling them into a nearly occult-like paranormal freestyle experience.

Good Vibes:

The Good Vibes are spreading and it feels natural. Featuring mind-altering and award winning new levels of board feel with the free-flexing Hinge Disk and the Split Baseplate. Good Vibes allow the board to flex naturally underfoot, heightening board feel and control and taking full advantage of continuous rocker. Let your toes marinate into dampening comfort with the full-length adjustable EVA pad so only the good vibes get through even on flat landings. Now available on the Republic and the award-winning Shaka.

Disk: 

Providing increased board feel and control, the Hinge Disk utilizes two separate pieces that operate independently, allowing the binding to flex underfoot. Updated for 2011 with nose-to-tail stance-width adjustment.

Comfort:

Simmer Down:

The medial (inside) section of the pad is engineered with a softer EVA that is easier to compress than the firm lateral (outside) section. This difference allows the pad to cant naturally based on the amount of pressure delivered from the boot. The natural canting self adjusts to every stance position, providing a custom fit that lets every rider enjoy the benefits of a more comfortable stance position, powerful ollies, and full-foot cushioning.

Good Vibes EVA Foot Pad:

An adjustable full-length pad that protects riders from heavy impacts and minimizes chatter, while still allowing precise board feel and control.

Bubbler Strap:

Plush comfort even cranked to 11 or just hanging your board from the chair. The Bubbler strap brings comfort with its thick padding and 3D interior spine.

Throwdown Toe Strap:

Designed for complete coverage around the toes, this molded strap throws down on demand and cinches boots into the heel cup for precise edge control. 

Good Vibes Split Baseplate:

Completely minimized to reduce the materials between rider and board, the Split Baseplate heightens board feel while allowing the board to flex naturally.
