Developed with the help of riders like Kennedi Deck and Hanne Eilertsen, the Network is the most freestyle-friendly binding in our women’s collection. Lightweight, flexible, and comfortable, the do-it-all Network binding features a set of no-frills straps atop a vibration-damping This Grips!™ basepad. By utilizing eco-conscious and recycled materials instead of plastics and EVA, we have made significant strides in sustainability. Our manufacturing process relies on over 40% solar-powered energy, and our packaging is FSC-certified, utilizing cardboard and recycled paper instead of plastics. As a result, we have achieved impressive reductions in our binding footprints – it’s not perfect, but it’s a click in the right direction: • The Network binding uses ~40% Bio-based material by volume and ~25% by weight. • GT1 Ankle Strap and Wrap Toe Straps have seen a 70% reduction in CO2 emissions per kg when compared to traditional TPU straps. • The castor-bean-based Team Highback offers ~a 40% reduction in CO2 emissions per kg when compared to a nylon highback. • Sugarcane EVA Shockpad offers a ~90% reduction in CO2 emissions per kg when compared to traditional EVA. • All K2 Snowboarding bindings come in 100% Recyclable Packaging. • All K2 Snowboarding binding packaging is 95% FSC-certified recycled material. • >40% of the energy used in our manufacturing process is derived from solar.
